Django 1.2 release schedule - Update 2
This week has seen more good progress towards the 1.2 release milestone. We are now down to 69 open tickets, of which 23 are documentation or translation updates that can be addressed after the release candidate lands. This leaves 46 substantive tickets before we have a release candidate.
To help squash this bug list, there is another development sprint planned for this weekend. If you can spare a few hours to help kill some release blocking bugs, why not join in! Add your name to the list of sprinters on the wiki, and join us online on IRC in #django-sprint.
There's no change to the estimated release dates this week. We're still aiming at a RC1 release around April 5, with a final release around April 12.
As always -- any and all assistance is most welcome; the more assistance we get, the faster 1.2 will land.
