I think we need some kind of process in place to monitor the number of critical and blocker defects over the course of the release and make sure they're tapering off as we approach a RC build.
My main comment about this release (this is the first CS release that I've participated in) is that I've never seen 150 bugs get fixed in the final week. At any of the commercial companies I've worked at over the past 15 years (SolidFire, HP, LeftHand Networks, Agilent Technologies, Accenture), checking in more than a small handful of defects at the "last minute" would not be likely to happen. If we would absolutely need to do this, the release would have to be pushed out so that we could regression test it properly. The main point is that we cannot compromise CloudStack's quality just to meet a release deadline. I'm guessing people agree with that.
