 [ Permalink  ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-mu-plugins-production/holiday-release-schedule-notice-december-17-to-january-5/)

As the holiday season approaches, we want to ensure everyone has the chance to relax
and enjoy this special time with their loved ones. Therefore, there won’t be any
scheduled [MU-Plugins](https://github.com/Automattic/vip-go-mu-plugins/) releases
from **December 17th to January 5th**.

During this period, no new feature or maintenance code will be pushed to the [production branch](https://docs.wpvip.com/technical-references/vip-go-mu-plugins/branches-and-updates/#0-production-branch)
on MU-plugins. As always, should the need arise, be it a security mitigation or 
other critical time-sensitive fix, we will deploy those.

We wish you all a wonderful holiday break!
