REMINDER: JavaFX 17 RDP2 starts tomorrow [was: Proposed schedule for JavaFX 17]

[Kevin Rushforth]

As a reminder, RDP2 for JavaFX 17 starts tomorrow, July 29, 2021 at 
16:00 UTC (09:00 Pacific time).

P1-P2 bugs can still be fixed during RDP2 with explicit approval, 
although the bar will be appropriately high. Test or doc bugs of any 
priority can still be fixed without explicit approval (beyond the code 
review). I'll send details tomorrow once RDP2 starts.
