Ian:
As far as "pre-announcing" the release, I think all we need to do is
hold off on renaming the final release candidate.

That is we pick a freeze date.  Everyone tests the release candidate for
say 1 week.  If at the end of the week we decide the candidate is good,
you can notify whoever you want.  Then we wait whatever "lead time" you
deem necessary and rename the *tested* release candidate as the final
release after that time elapses.

Everyone wins. We get to ship something we know works.   The press get
their lead time.
