Either way, it is a productivity, communication drain.  It is
a lose-lose situation no matter how one looks at it given the above
context.  We either get chastised for being "too open" into insights
delaying an official announcement, or for being "not open enough" when
there is silence from RE when a release does not meet its scheduled
announcement date.
Glen I appreciate your transparency and the efforts you have done to keep everyone in the loop.  I think people get excited about new releases, which is probably a good thing.  IMHO i feel you've been striking a good balance.

As an operator these updates are really helpful for me as it allows me to adjust timelines on my end for updating my fleet of servers. You and the RE team do an incredible job - and personally I am thankful for the caution and common sense you all bring to this complex process.

Cheers,
-pete
