That seems very nitpicky. Personally I don't think it matters much. […]
Ack, we'll change it later if we get annoyed enough.
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/68500/comment/4e60aa30_d9715784 PS1, Line 12: Our releases aren't primarily a vehicle for code that is stable across : all boards: The logistics of testing the more than 100 boards that are : spread out all continents (except Antarctica, probably) on a given tree : state are prohibitive for project of our size. : : Instead, the releases are regular breakpoints that serve multiple : purposes: They support cooperation between multiple groups (corporations : or otherwise) in that it's easier to keep source trees synchronized : based on a limited set of commits. They allow a quick assessment of the : age of any given build or source tree based on its git version (4.8-1234 : was merged into master a few months after 4.8, which came out in April : of 2018. 4.0-21718's age is harder to guess). : : And finally we use releases to as points in time where we remove old : code: Once we decide that a certain part of coreboot gets in the way of : future development, we announce on the next release that we intend to : remove that part - and everything that depends on it - after the : following release. So removing feature FOO will be announced in release : X for release X+1. The first commit after X+1 is fair game for such : removal.
I reflowed a bunch of sections because they weren't under 72 characters.
Ack, just noted this as there were no changes in the content.

Sorry, what do you mean "when doing the release"? Everything in this list is done as part part of doing the release.
Do you mean closer to the day of the release?
Yes, sorry for the confusion.
