It is good that RC1 on Jan.11th is a hard deadline. We also need ensure that RC1 is a complete package with all features. If RC1 is out but missing some big features, then the test results on RC1 vs RC2 may have big difference. 
So, could we ensure that RC1 is a complete feature package, if any feature missing RC1, then we may postpone the feature to 17.05? Does it make sense?

Hi and thanks for sharing your time constraints,

2016-11-15 01:46, Liu, Yong:
> As prospect for 17.02, our intel validation team have some concern about the release date.
> The official day off for Chinese Sprint Festival holiday will be from 27th Jan to 3th Feb.
> Most of our members may ask for more days leave either before or after the official day off.

The integration deadline is January 5.
So we can target/expect a RC1 on January 11.

> And after the holiday, we can keep on the validation process and finish in two weeks.
> If release date is after Feb, it will be hard for us to cover all cases in release window.

Yes, we must remind that mid-January is a hard deadline for RC1.
Then the release will be in mid-February to make sure you have some time after the holidays.
What about Valentine's day? :)
