[sakai2-tcc] Enhancement branch merge policy (end period) clarification

[Jean-Francois Leveque]

Megan,

I'm not Beth and my own vision was a bit blurred. ;)

I think the following order is worth trying:
1) Criteria outline in JIRA
2) 1st announcement to dev and production with cc to TCC
3) 2nd announcement to dev and production with cc to TCC if all goes fine

WDYT?
