Whatever date is it will have to have a release on it. There's no point 
in taking fixes after the final release, and I'd suggest that given it 
is the last one that we'll want a longer RC period with RM approval 
required for any changes after that. (I predict a slight chance of a 
last minute rush to get contribution made - possibly it's worth locking 
things down from the second-to-last release?)

All of which to say, there are more important concerns than choosing a 
cute date :) I've got no doubt that Benjamin will come up with a plan 
that leads to a stable and reliable release.

Cheers,
Steve
