16 -If any consultants are going to participate in the release, then ask them to verify their VPN connectivity to all of the relevant machines during the week before the release.  This will allow about one week to fix and test any issues that may be discovered.  SER0210791 is a good example of a service request to extend the VPN access of an SFGIS consultant.

17 - Re-send the announcements that were sent in Steps 13 and 14 on the Tuesday before the release (assuming a Friday release).

18 - EAS code freezes generally occur on the Tuesday before the release (assuming a Friday release).  When an EAS release candidate has been identified, deploy it to the EAS QA environment (SF QA *) on the day after the code freeze.

19 - Formally qualify the release candidate in the EAS QA environment per the instructions that are here a day or two before the release.  Store the test results in the (artifact) directory that is specified in the Bitbucket issue that was created in Step 3.

...

  If the release candidate was not successfully qualified, then proceed to Section 5 below, Cancel the Release.
