Agreed. If we decided to do time-based releases, let's do them as
planned and not discuss the decision two days before the planned
release...

I think we should mainly reconsider which bugs should be marked as
blockers. The current policy "every regression is a blocker" does not
make sense to me. In my opinion a blocker is something that makes the
software unusable for potentially large amount of users - in such case
it makes sense to delay the release for few days (as an exception, not
a rule).
