23-September.

Does anybody have objections to that schedule?  If not, I'll try to

We should probably do a release candidate, so I'd like to make that on spend some time over the next few days looking at outstanding bugs, and

2 days seems a little short (particularly allowing 24 hours or so for

the Windows and Mac installers to be produced). Haven't we historically left a week between the RC and actual release for maintenance releases?

I still want to release by the 25th, but I'd be willing to move the rc to Monday the 21st. We're really just trying to avoid a brown bag moment, so that should give us enough time to double check the releases.
