主题: [edk2-devel] Update stable tag release date for future stable tag

Hi, all

 Based on the proposal in https://edk2.groups.io/g/rfc/message/684, Soft Feature Freeze phase (SFF) will be shorten to 5 days for the reviewed patch merge, Hard Feature Freeze phase (HFF) will be extended to 2 weeks for downstream verification. Meanwhile, tag edk2-stableYYYYMM-rc0 will be created for SFF, and edk2-stableYYYYMM-rc1 will be created for HFF. The detail proposal can refer to https://edk2.groups.io/g/rfc/message/684. For next stable tag 202108, the proposed new date will be the below one. If you have any comments, please reply this mail before July 12^th.
