The major highlights of the schedule are: Code Freeze: March 23rd BETA1 March 30th Branch April 10th RC1 April 13th RC2 April 20th Release: May 4th The full schedule is here: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.2R/schedule.html though most of "the other events" haven't been given specific dates yet. Since it's often the case that developers process quite a few outstanding MFCs during the last couple days before a code freeze starts I have changed RELENG_7 to say it is 7.2-PRERELEASE now as a bit of a heads-up that the release cycle is imminent. You might need to be a tiny bit more careful using RELENG_7 right now because the odds of you getting a snapshot of the tree taken part way through someone doing something that required multiple commits goes up during this phase of a release.
