Hi,

No special treatment is expecting for Documentation:  I am going to submit  the 
Doc changes for 4.1 as patches on the Review Board.  Please review them at the 
earliest , if you are one of the reviewer.

Also, do respond to the queries posted on respective JIRA items corresponding 
to the features/ defects/enhancements. One set of such questions are posted at 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-645.


Thanks
-Radhika

Subject: RE: [ACS41] 4.1 branch moving to "limited updates only" after today

Just had a chat with Chip over this on the IRC   . I can volunteer to apply the 
patches over this weekend in case there are any , provided they are fully 
tested and reviewed by someone , since the patches might not be form my area of 
expertise. 

And I'll let Abhi take over this on the weekdays (assuming he's not available 
on the weekends ) to facilitate the committing of the patches to 4.1  - Just my 
thoughts !

Regards,
Pranav

I was just thinking about the exact same thing!

Any volunteer to be the 4.1 committer for my sleep hours?
