Well, I think a certain amount of disrespect for temporal prescriptions
is healthy. Should you manage to push something tomorrow that makes
things monotonically more awesome, I don't think anyone would object :)

The positive effect of this cyclic rhythm is that it allows us to
coordinate our efforts -- we're managing our expectations. The corollary
being, don't mess up Ludovic's expectations of a great release with a
half-baked push :)
