I'm not necessarily against the release date, I just don't think that this policy about tests is a good one. If we manage to have no tests failing on the build by Monday, Monday is fine. We can target Monday with an extension to, say, Thursday or next Monday if we need time to fix regressions. Unfortunately though, I'm not able to have a 1 on this proposal, be it a + or -, because I won't be able to spend time on the development of this cycle. Thanks, Anca > > Caleb > > > > >> 3.
