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

53 B<must> consent to ship the release.
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.
