Well, this procedure states that :

"If sufficient support is present, the first announcement is sent by the 
Release manager to the developers mailing list about the upcoming 
release along with a trac planning page (section). [...] The 
announcement should also include an approximate time table for the 
release, including the start of hard freeze, RC1, RC2, final release and 
the link to the trac page."
