I agree completely. The absolutely lowest criteria for a full release is 
that we have had a total freeze against a release candidate that has 
been tested extensively for a week.

There is a simple algorithm for this:

do {
    freeze(code);
    time = currentTime();
    while (NOW < time + ONE_WEEK)
        if (bugfound()) {
            unfreeze(code);
            fix(code);
            continue;
        }
    }
    release = code;
    unfreeze(code);
    return release;
} while (true);
