 === Background ===
-Focus for Android will be moving to a bi-weekly cadence, so our releases will be schedule driven rather than dictated by feature development progress.  Both features and fixes will be allocated to the next available release upon completion. This will give us the ability to respond much more quickly to bug reports and user feedback.
+Focus for iOS will be following a bi-weekly sprint cadence, so our releases will be schedule driven rather than dictated by feature development progress.  This will give us the ability to respond much more quickly to bug reports and user feedback. Minor releases may be pushed at the end of any sprint as bug fixes and minor changes necessitate, while major releases are targeted following every 3rd sprint.
-While the release cadence will remain the same, the release numbering in this schedule is subject to change, as whether a release is classified as an X.0 depends on the significance of the features/enhancements being shipped.
+=== Train Schedule - 2018 ===
-As a further benefit, the process will be simpler and more predictable for the multiple teams involved, as all key milestones will recur on a bi-weekly basis as well. Also, the volume of work to test, translate, review etc... will be smaller for each release, allowing us to move much more quickly.
-Releases with * indicate UX/feature-heavy releases.
-=== Train Schedule - 2017 ===

+=== Legend of Milestones ===
+*'''Sprint Start''' - Development work kicks off based on priorities identified, and commitments made in the last planning meeting, and continues for a period of two weeks.
+*'''QA hand-off''' - A first/potential candidate build is created by Engineering, and passed to QA for final Acceptance Testing.  (This is required/performed in addition to the ongoing feature testing which takes place throughout the development cycle, as particular items land.)
+*'''QA Sign-off''' - Automated testing, as well as manual feature testing have been completed at a level determined to be sufficient for the release by QA.  Any issues identified during acceptance testing, which were deemed to be blockers have been resolved, and the fixes verified by QA.
+*'''Submission''' -
