I think we agreed previously that Thursday was as late as we could go
while giving time for staging and so on. QA could do go/no-go 10 minutes
before release, but other groups need more time, so it's up to them to

Friday is also a holiday in the U.S., I think, BTW - the notorious
'black Friday'...
