June 4th sounds great for me. So far as the high altitude balloon goes:
tl;dr: a month or so. We're hesitating on choosing a date for this until we know that our telemetry is working flawlessly. It kinda bit us in the butt on our last flight. That being said it shouldn't be too long before enough of our systems are a "GO" that we choose a date and can answer that question better. When w8upd.org is up we have some reading material on the page from our last launch as well as audio from the cross band repeater that we flew on it.
