I think these dates are good and must be strictly respected.
It would be very bad (at least for me) to release later in August.

As we can see in the following picture [1],
we work less in August and tend to send the proposals at the last minute.

I don't know what can be done to avoid having hard days of reviews
after the August deadline.
Should we cut this period before or let a bit more days?

I'm OK for these ones.
> 18.02
> * Proposal deadline: November 24, 2017
> * Integration deadline: December 29, 2017
The Christmas / New Year holidays will be from Dec 25 to Jan 1.
I think we could move the integration deadline to Jan 5.
> * Release: February 2, 2018
The Chinese Spring Festival will be from Feb 15 to 21.
So we have a good margin.

> New Year, Spring Festival.
