The times for each RC are listed. And the weeks for the RCs are also
the week that applies to the translation-deadline (1st day of the
week, aka the Monday)

e.g: for 6.4.0:
[…]
RC2  Week 2 , Jan 6, 2020 - Jan 12, 2020
RC3  Week 4 , Jan 20, 2020 - Jan 26, 2020

To have the translations included in the RC2, which is tagged in Week
2, the translations have to be submitted until January 6.
For RC3, week4, it is January 20.

The ReleasePlan is pretty static, changes to the plan are rare.
(and most of the times it then would be delays, and not shifting the
deadline to an earlier date).
