I do intend to try to get this into 8.6. Here's the schedule I'm planning: - Intent to vote: within the next day or so - Open voting: Monday July 28th ~04:30 UTC - Voting closes: Monday August 11th ~04:30 UTC
Except for the week-day correction that you noticed yourself, that would be fully in line with policy and would also be meeting the soft freeze deadline.
If the vote passes, what's the process for getting the PR merged?
If the vote looks favorable, I'll also have a look at the implementation (so far I only looked at the tests, I also just added another test review) and if it looks good to me then I'll find a second reviewer for the implementation. You'll just have to make sure to react on the review notes in a timely fashion.
That should hopefully result in the technical review being concluded before the vote ends, so that the PR is immediately ready for merging.
Given that August 11 is also the day where Beta 1 is tagged, I'll ask the RMs to merge the PR (if vote is accepted and implementation is ready, of course) before tagging to avoid any timezone scheduling issues. After that, PRs may only land with RM approval, but given it’s a localized change and a small PR, I don't expect the approval to be denied, but I obviously can’t speak for certain.
Best regards Tim Düsterhus
