+--------+---------------+------------+-----------------+-------------------------------------------+
| Branch | Expected date | Release    | Release manager | Notes                                     |
+--------+---------------+------------+-----------------+-------------------------------------------+

|        | 2017-05-12    | 17.0.6     | Emil Velikov    |                                           |
|        | 2017-05-26    | 17.0.7     | Emil Velikov    | Final planned release for the 17.0 series |
