[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Evergreen 2.2 Release

[Tim Spindler]

Thanks Jason,  I appreciate your comments.  I remember the statement about
the March release but since there hasn't been much talk about the timetable
and there was still talk about an Alpha 2 release before beta. I'm
wondering if a March release date is feasible?
