+1 on giving people one week from the Jason's initial mail in this thread. Will the release be a RC or the real deal? We've had this discussion before and I honestly don't remember what we decided, but I think cutting a RC first for core is good. So maybe cut a RC now and have us/people test that in parallel to the slf4j isolation objection period?
