We chose a slightly different approach, laid out by a handful of developers and active users during three evenings at LinuxTag. The strategy was discussed and agreed on on this mailing-list without a single objection. There will be a retrospective when we can discuss if it was a success or not, if we can improve the process or not. For now, let's try to get the release out as planned. Don't change the aircraft in the middle of the flight (and we are already turning to final approach).
