Re: [edk2-wiki PATCH] release planning: announce the soft and hard feature freezes

["Kinney, Michael D" <michael.d.kinney@intel.com>]

Perhaps we should update Maintainers.txt with some lines
that identify the developers that are currently assigned
to the release/release planning role.  That way, the Wiki
can reference Maintainters.txt and we can update
Maintainers.txt as the assignments change over time.

Thanks,

Mike
