is as follows:

Monday Mar 22  08:00 EST - 3.0
M8 Warm-up build 
- this is just a warm up 
- rebuilds will only be run if their are compile errors, missing plugins
or the build is unusable.  (Same as the integration build rebuild
policy) 

- Tuesday, Mar 23 - 3.0 M8 Test Candidate build
- 3.0 M8 build toward Test candidate at 12:10 am, 8 am, noon, 4 pm, and
8 pm builds if map files are updated 
- Midnight Integration builds will be in lieu of the nightly builds on
Tuesday and Thursday. 
- goal: a good build for the test pass on Wednesday
- all teams need to sign off on  that candidate build is good enough
to use for Wednesday's test pass 
- for a rebuild, only team(s) requesting the rebuild need to recheck and
sign off (although they may request
other teams to revalidate potentially
affected functionality) 

- Wednesday, Mar 24 (all day) - 3.0 M8 Test pass 
  - intensive 1-day test pass on M8 candidate
