[Starlingx-discuss] Next steps for releasing stx.5.0 - branch closed for release process

[Ildiko Vancsa]

Hi Ghada,

Thank you for the update!

We are scheduling the press release for early next week as these tend to get lost on a Friday. It’s also a long weekend in the US, so it’s probably better when people are back to work relaxed. :)

Thanks,
Ildikó
