Fair enough. Cutting a candidate release would be a good way to provide the "deadline". This would allow any in-flight Issues to be resolved before we make this 0.9.7 final.

I hate to bring this up, but it takes more than a day or two to cut a release and have it approved. Take a look at the 0.9.6 release. Granted, we're smarter than that now, but it still takes some time. Let's say we built a candidate release right now. You want to give the community a chance to find issues with it or to complain that bug xyz hasn't been fixed or that they found a regression. It might take a few days to get the feedback and then all weekend to come up with a new candidate. Then, you need to ask the Incubator for permission to release, which takes a minimum of 3 days (72 hours). You're now into the middle of next week. If the incubator folks find anything, it's another spin of the wheel. Craig On Mar 27, 2007, at 2:09 PM, Kevin Sutter wrote: > Patrick, > I tend to agree.
