Hi all,

it's that time of the year when it's time to talk about new NixOS release.
According to our somewhat-documented release process at
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/4442, I'd like to branch off 16.03
on 28.2. (Sunday).

When the branch is made, everyone is encouraged to test and bugfix the
release. No major bumps or other backwards-incompatible changes should be
made.

Let me know if you think something is blocking the branch-off. The way I
see it, closure-size (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/7701) won't
make it into this release and I wouldn't risk merging it a month before the
release. Big +1 from me for merging it after the branch off.

Domen
