[Halld-offline] push deadline moved to Monday [Re: push deadline moved to Friday]

[Mark Ito]

Folks,

We have decided to postpone the deadline for pushes to sim-recon again. 
The new deadline is 5 pm, Monday, July 23. There are several reasons for 
delay, not least of which is to avoid a Friday afternoon software incident.

Also, we have improved the split method. Now branches of sim-recon will 
survive the transition to both the halld_sim and halld_recon 
repositories. The requirement that sim changes be merged onto the master 
branch (mentioned previously) is therefore relaxed.

Have a nice weekend.
