I think it's really great to agree on the date by which we want to have a RC1 early. However, I thought the target release date is beginning of December, which would probably bring us to December 2nd, given the first is a Sunday. The voting period is 3 days. I would have expected that we'd create the RC around 11/26 (with the caveat that everything looks fine by then). What's the reasoning behind cutting it so early?
