Hi,

well it seems that I was a little bit to optimistic or do I need a
break? I don't know probably both but I talked with the developers in my
direct surrounding field and taking the Christmas break, vacation etc.
into account we believe that my proposal was a little bit to optimistic.

I don't know what others think but based on this new information I would
like to move my proposed schedule a little bit.

Jan 24, 2014 feature freeze
Jan 27, 2014 translation freeze
Feb ??, 2014 feature FVT finish (I know in China is public holiday as
well from Jan 31 - Feb 7)
Feb 14, 2014 4.1 beta candidate
Feb 21, 2014 4.1 beta release for pubic review
Feb 21 - ? full regression testing and bug fixing
Mar 21, 2014 RC1?
Apr 1, 2014  GA? (I like this date if possible)

It would nice to hear other opinions or general feedback.

Juergen
