| 45 | =head1 DEVELOPMENT RELEASE SCHEDULE |
| 46 | |
| 47 | This schedule lists the release engineers for at least the next |
| 48 | four months of releases of bleadperl. If there are fewer than |
| 49 | four months listed as you make a release, it's important |
| 50 | that you extend the schedule AND B<identify the next release engineer>. |
| 51 | |
| 52 | Before adding a release engineer, you B<must> contact them and they |
| 53 | B<must> consent to ship the release. |
| 54 | |
| 55 | When shipping a release, you should include the schedule for (at least) |
| 56 | the next four releases. If a stable version of Perl is released, |
| 57 | you should reset the version numbers to the next blead series. |
