Schedule reminder: 4.7.1 scheduled to launch at January 11, 2017 at 15:00 UTC
2017 releases: 4.7.1 will NOT be last in the 4.7 branchbranch A directory in Subversion. WordPress uses branches to store the latest development code for each major release (3.9, 4.0, etc.). Branches are then updated with code for any minor releases of that branch. Sometimes, a major version of WordPress and its minor versions are collectively referred to as a "branch", such as "the 4.0 branch"., so it’s best to start on anything that needs to go in 4.7.2 immediately
General announcements: bring your bullhorn, step up on the soapbox, and shout for all to hear
