    > =C2=A0
    > =C2=A0 Hi, I'm happy to help with 18.02.1. Given it will be based on 18.05-rc2, which is due out on approximately April 20th, I think we can be ambitious and target April 27th as the tentative release date. Note that ATT won't be able to help with regression tests this time around. John, may we count on help from Intel to run the usual batch of regression tests between the 20th and the 27th? --=20 Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
