Yes, true, I am not going to push the schedule. What I want to try to
do is keep people more informed of where we are in the release process,
and more informed about the open issues involved.
That squishy freeze is one of those items that is very hard to organize
because it is so arbitrary about what should be added. I think we need
to communicate CODE-CODE-CODE until September 1, then communicate
TEST-TEST-TEST after that. We will not release before it is ready, but
we will marshall our forces better.
