[erlang-patches] What's cooking in erlang/otp (2011-11-23)

Hello!

The release of R15B is approaching, the preliminary release date is 14th of December.

The code stop for me, and thus for patches from you, is Wednesday the 30th November.
Keep in mind that that date is for patches that are reviewed and done by that date, so if you want to have your patch included in R15, you need to send it in asap.


After the release of R15B we will introduce the new 'maint' branch and the new 'maint-pu' branch for patches.
See the wiki for more information about what branch to base your patch-branches upon.
