Edgy Eft Release Schedule

At the time of writing, we are at T-18 weeks. For comparison: Breezy's UpstreamVersionFreeze was T-14 weeks, while FeatureFreeze was T-9 weeks. (Dapper is less comparable due to its unusual release schedule.)

For comparison:

Draft release schedule at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule

Need an ubuntu-translators-announce mailing list (or ability to mail all Ubuntu translators in Launchpad). JordiMallach has been volunteered to coordinate (announce string freezes and exceptions).

Artwork is now officially a feature (or bug fixes as appropriate, with the obvious sane definition), and is therefore subject to FeatureFreeze.

Bring docteam into spec tracking process: start documenting at beta-available. Other notification methods?
