The point of course is to not way *too* long, so that changes can still be put 
into effect, but not too early, before the features and new packages are in. 
If that happens, then we'll start fixing/cleaning up places of bugs, but then 
a whole horde of other ones might be created before release. A couple of 
months before release time sounds good to me.
