Releases and the Sprint

We pushed everything back one week. So the 1.6 final release will be next Wed. April 15th. The sprint will be next Friday and Saturday, April 17th and 18th, in preparation for the 1.7.2 release on Wed. April 22nd. We’ve created a wiki page for the sprint to start the planning:
