I need to commit a fix for a regression in #11610, and I think there is one
other small issue, but I can't recall at the moment.

I can accelerate the timeline and wrap things up by this Saturday. That
would give us the following timeline,

  1. Close out those tickets by Saturday 07/18
  2. Spend the next few days reviewing the tickets that were closed in

the release, testing, trying to catch anything that may have been
overlooked initially. String freeze on Monday 07/20.
  3. Allow the two weeks for translators to update the catalogs.
  4. Prepare the release on 08/01 or later.

I don't know the process well, so I can't comment on whether (3) can be
sped up.
