 			<h3>What is the game plan?</h3>
 			<p>
 	 		The Eclipse 2018-09 (4.9) release endgame involves building
 	        a series of release candidates leading to the Eclipse project's contribution to the
 	        2018-09 (4.9) release. The Eclipse project version number for this release is 4.9.
 			As always, we welcome help from the
 	        community with testing the release candidates. By default, 2018-09 (4.9)
 	        is supposed to work exactly like the Photon (4.8) release. All new features and problems fixed in 2018-09 (4.9) are in the Eclipse bugzilla database.
 	        </p>

 	        <p>General announcements during the 2018-09 (4.9) endgame are posted to the
 	        <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-releng-dev">platform-releng-dev@eclipse.org</a>
 		    developer mailing list. Anyone participating in the endgame should be subscribed
 			to this list, and should direct any general questions and comments about the process
 			there as well.</p>

 			<strong>API change approval</strong>
 	        <p>
 			No API changes are expected after RC1. Any exception must be
 			approved by the PMC. No changes are to be released without prior approval
 			and associated bug report. Please send the request for approval to the eclipse-pmc
 			mailing list. If a change is made to API to make it binary compatible with
 			a previous release, technically this is still an API change, and thus it should be treated
 			in the same way as any other API change requests.
 			</p>

 			<strong>Feature work approval</strong>
 	        <p>
 			Any feature work must be approved by the PMC. No changes are to be released without prior approval
 			and associated bug report. Please send the request for approval to the eclipse-pmc
 			mailing list.
 			</p>


 		   <strong>RC1</strong>
 		   <p>
 		   All fixes submitted must have a project lead or PMC vote on the bug report,
 		   and the fix must be reviewed by an additional committer (any committer other than
 		   the one who made the fix).
 		   </p>

 		   <strong>RC2</strong>
 		   <p>
 	        Release candidate containing fixes for the majority of known outstanding
 	        defects that we intend to fix for 2018-09 (4.9). At the end of RC2 build,
 	        there should not be any open defects tagged 4.9. All fixes submitted
 	        must have a project lead or PMC vote on the bug report,
 	        and the fix must be reviewed by an additional committer (any committer other than
 	        the one who made the fix).
 	        </p>

 	        <strong>Test pass using RC2</strong>
 	        <p>Concerted 1-day testing effort using RC2 involving entire community including
 	        all component teams. The goal is to verify all the fixes and check for any regressions.
 			</p>

 			<strong>2018-09 (4.9) Release</strong>
 			<p>The 2018-09 (4.9) release should be complete and available for download by
 	              September 19, 2018 as part of the <a href="">2018-09
 	              coordinated service release</a>. If product teams intending
 	              to ship on 2018-09 (4.9) uncover further serious defects during the endgame,
 	              we may schedule additional release candidate builds to incorporate fixes.
