Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Roadmap for XWiki 5.0

Hi devs, since we are a bit late already and there is still work to do to fully stabilize Jenkins I propose to move 5.0 dates a little: * 5.0M2: ASAP

* 5.0RC1: 15 April 2013

* 5.0Final: I won't be able to do a release for the week of the 22 so unless someone wants to do it I propose 29 April 2013

Another possibility is to skip RC and release final on 15 (like we did several times for other versions) but 5.0 is far from being a smal release so a RC and some time to test are not a luxury.
