A typical six-hour working gap supports Swiss-afternoon and Georgia-morning review, but calendars can differ briefly around daylight-saving changes. The protocol records actual dates, decisions, and evidence.
Define live decision windows, asynchronous updates, language reviewers, scope owner, evidence owner, acceptance deadline, and escalation path.
Calendar dates beat a permanent time-zone promise
Written decisions reduce rework
Each content variant has an approver
MODULE 02
Security and release
Use least privilege, separate accounts, dependency and change records, backups, staging, repeatable tests, rollback, incident contacts, and a production verification packet.
No shared credentials
No release from an unverified source tree
No residual risk without business ownership
MODULE 03
Handoff and operations
Document monitoring, vendors, content updates, renewal dependencies, support response, known limitations, emergency steps, and what requires a new scope.
Technical support is defined, not implied
Third-party availability is external
Acceptance closes the release
Measure. Decide. Implement. Verify.
Make every Switzerland release status traceable to evidence.
