It is very likely our M4 build will be

But ... we've had to go through several
respins to get things right ... mostly "repo correctness" issues
(not that much of substance has changed in past few days). 

So, our unit tests won't be complete
until late tonight, hence we won't declare an official M4 until those are
done and confirmed ok. That will either be late tonight or Saturday, depending
on exactly when they get done and teams finish their sign-offs (bug 396469).

I will go ahead and update our b3aggrcon
file with our "presumed M4" build, so we can get an idea of how
many other projects I need to disable :)  As teams make your own contributions
Monday through Wednesday [1], feel free to re-enable, when you are ready.
There might be so many I'll decide to leave it broken for a while ... just
for example, I know DTP and GEF only recently updated their ICU4J, so if
I see I'd have to disable projects at that level, I'd have to disable just
about everyone! 

Thanks for your patience and contributions
... it will be an exciting week! 


[1] In case anyone needs a reminder,
M4 is due 12/21, which means contributions done by Wednesday next week,
Thursday EPP day, and Friday make available. This is the time of year we
switch to a "1 week window" from +0 to done.
