#  Changelog: VIP MU plugins [Staging]

The release window for [VIP MU plugins](https://docs.wpvip.com/vip-go-mu-plugins/)
is currently Tuesdays between 08:00 and 22:00 UTC (09:00 and 23:00 UTC when Daylight
Saving Time is in effect in North America).  Changes made and deployed to the VIP
MU plugins Staging branch are labeled `[Status] Deployed to staging` and visible
in a filtered [VIP MU plugins pull request](https://github.com/Automattic/vip-go-mu-plugins/pulls?q=label%3A%22%5BStatus%5D+Deployed+to+staging%22+)
view.

By default, the staging branch of VIP MU plugins is deployed to one non-production
environment for all applications. This allows customers to test changes before they
are released to production environments. This also provides time for the VIP Team
to observe errors and test for bugs across a wider variety of applications.
