Now that 1.7.5 is out, let's plan the next cycle toward 1.7.6.  Here is a
rough timetable I have in mind:

* Apr 25th (Week #1 of post 1.7.5 cycle)

  Post release clean-up.  Give higher priority regression fixes if/when
  found.

  Start merging some topics that have been cooking in "next" during the
  last cycle (see "What's cooking" I'll send out later today).

* May 2nd (Week #2) thru May 29th (Week #5)

  The usual "busy development" period.  New topics queued to "next" and
  graduating to "master", etc.

* June 1st (Week #6): 1.7.6-rc0 (Tentative feature freeze).

  Most of the 1.7.6 topics should be in "master" but allow a few topics to
  cook a bit longer in "next".

* June 8th (Week #7): 1.7.6-rc1 (Feature freeze).

* June 15th (Week #8): 1.7.6-rc2.

* June 19th (end of Week #8): 1.7.6 (Final).

We might slip for one week and do 1.7.6-rc3 on 22nd, final on 26th.  We
will hopefully know which by the middle of June.

Personally I am looking forward to see the remainder of i18n series (not
l10n at this moment yet) and the fundamental parts of magic pathspec
(i.e. ":(root):") series to be in the next release.  It would be really
nice if we can revisit some topics that have been stalled during this
cycle.
