stretch EOL point release (9.13) and 10.5 planning

[Adam D. Barratt]

Hi,

stretch transitions from oldstable-with-security-support to LTS support
on Saturday July 4th. As usual, we should aim for the final point
release to be soon after that, most likely pulling in any remaining
updates from security.d.o that are still in oldstable-new.

I think Saturday July 11th makes most sense (so freezing opu during the
transition weekend), but we could potentially stretch (no pun intended)
slightly further if need be.

We also need to look at the next buster point release in a similar
timeframe. Can anyone see a reason not to do the two at the same time,
as usual?

To get the ball rolling, please could you confirm your availability
for:

- July 11/12
- July 18/19

Thanks,

Adam

Should be fine for the images team.

Either is possible for me, with a slight preference for the second
weekend.

Haven't looked at stretch in a while from a d-i point of view, but I
don't think we have any bugfixes pending? I'll have to check what's
happening on the buster front, if anything.

Anyway, I should be available, whatever date(s) get picked.

Preferance would be the weekend of the 18/19 for Isy and me (we have
