    1717The Django core team has a couple of major features we'd like to merge:
    1818
    19 * `contrib.postgres - Marc Tamlyn <http://postgres.mjtamlyn.co.uk/>`_
    20 * `multiple template engines - Aymeric Augustin <https://myks.org/en/multiple-template-engines-for-django/>`_
    21 * `model _meta API - Daniel Pyrathon (GSoC project) <https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/new_meta_api>`_
    22 * `Use F() objects in aggregates(), annotates() and values() - Josh Smeaton <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14030>`_
     19* TBD
    2320
    2421Minor features and bug fixes will be committed as they are completed. If you have submitted a patch, be sure the flags on the Trac ticket are correct such that it appears in the "Patches needing review" filter of the `Django Development Dashboard <https://dashboard.djangoproject.com/>`_. Better yet, find someone to review your patch and mark the ticket as "Ready for checkin". Core developers try to regularly review and merge "Ready for checkin" tickets.

    47 Tim Graham, as the release manager, will be in charge of keeping the schedule. The release manager keeps track of who's working on what issues so that bug reports can be efficiently routed and also nag developers who are in danger of missing deadlines. Marc Tamlyn will serve as a backup release manager.

    52 All major and minor features must be committed by the Alpha 1 deadline. Any features not done by this point will be deferred or dropped. Note that in past release cycles minor features were allowed until beta.

    54 At this time, we will fork ``stable/1.8.x`` from ``master``. In previous release cycles we forked after beta, but now that we aren't going to accept minor features after alpha, we need to fork sooner.
     51At this time, we will fork ``stable/1.9.x`` from ``master``. In previous release cycles we forked after beta, but now that we aren't going to accept minor features after alpha, we need to fork sooner.

    5653After the alpha, non-release blocking bug fixes may be backported at the committer's discretion.
    57 
    58 There are a couple of code refactorings that ideally should be done near the alpha deadline before we fork ``stable/1.8.x``. They are tagged in Trac with `1.8-alpha <https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=!closed&keywords=~1.8-alpha>`_.

    75 Ideally, Django 1.8 final will ship two weeks after the last RC. If there are no major bugs found by 2 weeks after the release candidate, we will issue 1.8 final. If not, we will decide how to proceed from there at that time (likely another release candidate would be issue at some point).
