I think some wider testing can still be useful. For example, does sytem-wide/installation-wide/user-specific package installation work on all flavors of Windows/Linux/OSX that we support. Another issue, which perhaps Jay has more insight into -- are we planning to move the PNS to racket-lang.org prior to the release?
