sorry for the semi-sarcasm, but no step can really be announced before it=
 is=20
announced!  It looks like they are as much as 7 days behind (and possibly=
=20
none at all, the testing guide could appear later today), but with all th=
e=20
releng team has to do, that's not too surprising, it is all done by=20
volunteers.  That page seems like the best place to check. =20
=09Tthe developers@freebsd.org mailing list is a closed list for committe=
rs=20
only.  So those reminder anouncements could have been made already
and everything on schedule, just not updated the page yet
=09It seems the code freeze announcement is only sent to developers, but =
you can=20
follow cvs-all@freebsd.org if you want to see exactly when it does happen=
=2E =20
Why the announcement is not sent to -stable, I have no idea.
Basically, likely no biggie, be patient
