   @alexott - Also to explain more (and apologise, if it's been a little - or 
even little more than a little - harsh). 
   
   But I think this is really just question of balance between the risk we will 
break something and the time/effort of somone's (who?) to do enough testiing to 
be confident envouhg. There is never 100%. We cannot extend the testing period 
for very long time because it will hamper our "operations". And we do not know 
who is / is not available for testing. We cannot really have a point to say "we 
wait for response". 
   
   The most we can do is to make all the reasonable effort to flag and notify 
everyone involved and give them SOME time to react. Is 72 hours enough? Should 
it be 96 maybe? Should we always have weekend included? 
   
   To be honest I was quite surprised to see the statement of yours - usually 
we made voting last 1 more day if the weekend was included to account that 
people will NOT have time to do testing then because usually they spend 
weekends with their families etc. I often (my personal choice) do some CI stuff 
during wekends because then it's faster and safer to iterate on it) and quite 
often I shift my working/non-working days freely because I have very flexible 
situation (no day job, no kids, wife that has also super flexible schedule), 
but I would not think this is "needed" by others :)
   
   Do you really think having a weekend as part of the voting time for 
providers is a good idea and way to improve the quality of testing in general? 
I think we COULD make sure we always start voting on Wed and finish on Tuesday, 
I just have  feeling that would be rather artifficial setting for one specific 
case only. I often did adjust the relase schedule to various events (for 
example I would never start voting this Wednesday - knowing that ThanksGiving 
is coming),.  
   
   Maybe this is also question to others in this thread. We have quite 
representative group in this thread  - do you think that would be a good idea 
to add some regularity in the day-of-week process?
