Did you not get my mail about me being in the middle of backpatching?
I guess I can stop now.
4pm on the day of a release is way too late to be committing anything
(except security stuff ...).  If you felt you had a must-fix problem,
you should have been lobbying for a release postponement at least
six hours ago.
These timings might mean something to you, but I've never been aware
of such things because I'm not on the packagers list and its pure
silence everywhere else.



I agree it can be hard to keep the dates in mind. Could we add a couple of reminders for committers to the release procedures? Say 48 hours before the release to say "the tree needs to go quiet in 24 hours" and 24 hours before to say "no commits without discussion until the release is cut"?

cheers
