+      <p>The &os; Release Engineering Team is responsible for setting
+	and publishing release schedules for official project releases
+	of &os;, announcing code freezes and maintaining the
+	respective branches, among other things.</p>
+
+      <p>During the last quarter of 2015, the Release Engineering team
+	added support for three additional &os;/arm systems:
+	<tt>BANANAPI</tt>, <tt>CUBIEBOARD</tt>, and
+	<tt>CUBIEBOARD2</tt>.</p>
+
+      <p>In addition to regular development snapshot builds for
+	&os; 11.0-CURRENT and &os; 10.2-STABLE, several
+	changes and enhancements were made to the release build code.
+	Of note, the release build code no longer produces MD5
+	checksums, in favor of SHA512.</p>
+
+      <p>Toward the end of the year, much of the primary focus was
+	centered around the upcoming &os; 10.3 release cycle,
+	which will begin during January 2016.</p>
+
+      <p>As always, help testing development snapshot builds is
+	crucial to producing quality releases, and we encourage
+	testing development snapshots whenever possible.</p>
