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