Will we get a timeline of the next dev diaries until release, like we did with SoI? Or is this a company secret?Next week on the 17th is when the next dev diary releases, just happens it is also closer to midmonth than the 10th
And maybe separately: doesn't this release date conflict with the usual Summer holidays in Sweden? We can't force you guys to stay inside fixing bugs during the only sunlight you'll get all year.

As I understand, the holidays are July to August (cool to be Europeans, I must say). And the release in due in June. There is a question of allowing time for hotfixes, but it all looks very doable.
Most Europeans dont have such holiday shut downs, I think its just Sweden actually because their country is very dark and gloomy the rest of the year. Or maybe its just Paradox, I cant imagine the whole of Sweden closes down over the summer
Mind you they seem to get 17 Bank Holidays!
I'll bring it up with Pelly to see if we want to commit to a schedule.
It's unlikely we'll make big changes to it, but it's always good to have the option to shuffle things around
We have made arrangements to ensure we have proper post-release support for the update. It's not so bad as we still have the last June weeks where the most work will undoubtedly happen.
In general, it's not like every single person here is off for the whole duration of July. But it's a large enough percentage of people where vacation overlaps for some time that you don't want to rely on many complex things getting done.
On the other hand, it gives people like me who don't enjoy long vacations the opportunity to clean up documentation, prepare design documents for the upcoming features and so on.

From the crypt we arise, craving the taste of fresh blood and kanelbullar!

Pelly thought she left the oven turned on so we all had to slouch back to check if the crypt is fine.

The diaries are on a fortnightly schedule at the moment. There'll be one next week, and then the next two weeks after that.
