This Friday April 26th is the last recommended day to commit changes (documentation , bug fixes, etc) to the devel branch. This is to allow all changes to propagate and build on the build system prior to branching. The branch will be frozen and branched on Monday April 29 th.  All packages should be passing building and check without ERROR and WARNINGS by Friday April 26th.  If a package is failing across all three platforms the package will be considered for deprecation depending on the length and severity of the ERRORS.
