I agree according to the letter of the procedure, but disagree
according to the spirit of accomplishing releases, for whatever values
of $release. This release has been informally announced for at least
10-14 days, and I think that yesterday Owen telegraphed some intention
to run a "2-minute offense" against it today.

I think there was some consensus in fact if not in official vote built
around releasing an 0.6, as the votes now show, however hurried or
post-dated they may be.

There is no justification for procedure as procedure, but only as an
aid to efficiency.
