While I agree the deadline section of [1] is not clear, one thing you missed
is that for the final release of a version (i.e. not RC1, RC2, etc.), there is 
an
extra week of "wait for testing and make sure no showstopper in there"
period, and the actual code-changing deadline should be a week before the
release week, the same as the last RC.  So for the 6.4.0 case, the code was
tagged in Git sometime in the Jan. 20th - Jan. 26th week [3], and your
expectation of Jan 27th was definitely too late.

I'll leave the clarification of the exact dates to others.

Hope this helps,
