Full schedule is available on https://developer.r-project.org (or https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/index.html for the impatient).

Minor question: wouldn't the new pipe syntax be worth a minor version
bump? A package planning to drop magrittr would end up depending on R
4.0.4, which sounds suboptimal. And (I don't find any reference to
this in the manual or in CRAN policies, but) if I remember correctly,
depending on a patch version was discouraged.

I don't think I've seen anything to signal that it will end up in 4.0.4. 
  It's intended for 4.1.0, as far as all the signs show.

Yes. The NEWS mention the pipe syntax for R-devel not for R-patched.

See the section "CHANGES IN R 4.0.3 patched" in

https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/doc/html/NEWS.html

for what is currently included for R 4.0.4.

Cheers,
