Yeah, it's just a pattern I've adopted because it seems to work -- the first and last days in the week didn't seem like a good idea because Monday wouldn't give us any time to try to investigate or fix something that came up over the weekend, and I definitely didn't want to be trying to get tags or releases out last thing on Friday (it doesn't give us useful room to slip a tag by a day or so if necessary). And I don't work Wednesdays, so Tuesday is a natural choice. thanks -- PMM

It worked very well for me as a submaintainer. I don't know its origin, but it works, bringing some degree of order and predictability, and at the same seemingly not imposing larger than necessary burden, and the end-of-week rush. Just from my gut feeling, "Mondays" or "Fridays" wouldn't work that well.
