[cross-project-issues-dev] Prepare for Mars SR1 RC1 and Neon M1

["David M Williams" <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Teams, 

Please be aware that the deadlines for
Neon M1 and Mars SR1 RC1 are soon approaching AND in fact both _end_ on
the same day: 8/21. 
Since that will be a busy week for most,
wanted to give this early warning. And please remember you don't have to
wait until your +n day to contribute ... that is the deadline for _final
contribution_ to that milestone or RC, but is very helpful to yourself
and others to do "warm-up" builds before then, to reduce surprises
by "last minute" changes. 

As for Neon, while the "whole plan"
is not yet complete, the first 4 milestones will be similar to previous
years. I've update the Neon
plan and  Planning
Council calendar with those first
4 milestones. 

Thanks,
