REMINDER: 4.1 feature freeze and 4.1.0.0.beta1 release

[Petr Mladek]

Hi,

please note that the feature freeze and commit deadline for 4.1.0.0.beta1
is today, May 20, 2013.

The plan is to create the libreoffice-4-1 branch on Tuesday. Then we
will make sure that it is buildable and usable and create the beta1 tag
on that branch. It will hopefully happen on Tuesday.

Please, let me know if you are late with a feature. It is possible to
wait few hours or one day.

Please, do not commit too incomplete or broken stuff that could make
beta1 unusable. We need to have it in a good state for testing.
Note that there is still possibility to add late features with 3
approvals from people with different affiliation.

The branch will be announced on the mailing list and in the irc
#libreoffice-dev channel title. Once we have the branch, please cherry
pick useful fixes from master there. We do not plan to merge between
the branches. So, we kindly ask everyone to keep master and the branch
in sync.
