I've been biting my tongue about this because I'm not sure that I can offer any help or useful suggestions, but here goes...
What on earth is going on with release scheduling? FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE, according to the scheduling page at www.freebsd.org, should have had a Release Candidate published two months ago, on 13 September. Instead we're still on a Beta - BETA-2, which isn't mentioned in the original schedule. The todo list which has appeared on the website in previous releases isn't available this time, so I can't even get a feel for the likely cause of the holdup. As I said, I hate to stand on the sidelines and heckle when I'm not doing anything to contribute to the release, but the timetable has slipped badly and I don't feel I can find information about the reasons or the revised timings. What exactly is going on, and is there anything a busy sysadmin, poor in time, bandwidth and C skills, can do to help with either the release itself or the apparent scheduling/communication issues? (I've sent this to -questions rather than -stable because it seems to be an ongoing problem with the timetabling of releases.)
