For development, this means we will _not_ have a shortened, non-initdb

Might we set a rough date for Beta freeze for 8.1 then?
September 30th 2005 ?
I see only benefit from publishing a not-before date now. It's up to
Core if it slips, but it'll really help with gaining funding if people
can accurately determine whether or not features can be added for
inclusion in the next release. There are lots of potential donors
waiting, so lets give them some certainty about which release their
payback will occur in....
Yea, probably September, but you can't dump a huge feature on us in
August either without having talked about it first, so knowing the date
might not be that helpful.
Am I misunderstanding here? September 30th is 15 months after the feature freeze for 8.0. On that basis we might reasonably expect 8.1 to appear around April 2006. Is that what's intended?
