+
+This document lists the release engineers for at least the next
+four months of releases of bleadperl. If there are fewer than 
+four months listed as you make a release, it's important
+that you extend the schedule AND B<identify the next release engineer>.
+
+Before adding a release engineer, you B<must> contact them and they
+B<must> consent to ship the release.
+
+When shipping a release, you should include the schedule for (at least)
+the next four releases. If a stable version of Perl is released,
+you should reset the version numbers to the next blead series.
