Ok...9/16 then...but this is now 4 days warning. 9/16 needs to be it
(yes I know...someone needs to be the bad cop). ;-)

The count was :
9/9 : Jacek, Joe (non committer), Bruce, Geir, Dain, David B, Jeff
9/16 : Alan, Gianny,
with David J then suggesting on friday (9/9) that given the state of
things, we wait until monday (today, 9/12) and re-evaluate.
It seems like we're making great progress, but still not there yet as
of now - we need to fix the regressions so we don't have to fix the
code in two places (which is probably what bit us from M4).
Maybe your 9/16 will be it after all :)

I think we've made significant progress in the last week towards
being ready to make the branch for M5, but I think there may be
reasons to wait a couple more days. There are 2 features that
people want to get in (security improvements and DDL generation)
that I would like to see in M5, and more stabilization is needed
in any case before the release. I think that unless someone is
waiting to get a new feature in that shouldn't go in M5 we should
wait until monday and see where we are.
If anyone is contemplating a commit that may destabilize our code
please speak up so we can branch beforehand.
thanks

The list for what we are agreeing to go into M5. If
something isn't on the list and its an added bonus, then
fine. We need a closure date at this point. I think we have
all agreed what is minimally in the cut.
Maybe we should make the branch like Friday, so any code
not on
the list has to go into HEAD, and just have a longer closing
period to
resolve the list items. There is a lot on the list, so that
would mean a
lot of merges to HEAD, but unless everyone is willing to hold
off on
non-list items, I'm not sure we're actually moving toward
greater stability in the mean time.
Ok..shall we branch on Friday? Anhyone have any issues with
this? I am game.
Friday is great. Aaron expressed the same concern I was
thinking about; getting further and further from stable the
long we wait to branch. Things always tend to creep in.
