Hello, with Kamailio 6.0.5 scheduled for this week, Thursday, January 8, 2026, I would prefer to delay with one day the freezing date for the next major release series Kamailio v6.1.x, so it is at the end of same day (January 8, 2026) -- it makes things easier to do the versioning updates on Friday morning, after the pressure of testing/release the current stable is gone.
Following the past releases approach, the existing pull requests can still be merged during the first part of the testing phase, till the moment the git branch 6.1 is created, therefore if anyone still wants to add new features to 6.1.x, make sure to push them to git repository when already having a developer access or create the pull requests till freezing announcement (till the end of January 8, 2026). Work on related tools and documentation, as well as completing/tuning the new features of 6.1.x, are also allowed during the testing phase.
