Advance warning does allow interested users that would consider upgrading to schedule time for testing before the maintenance release comes out. This is particularly useful in helping to make a 1-week RC period effective in picking up issues that might otherwise lead to a brown paper bag release to fix major issues that slipped through our own automated test coverage.
