Good point. I see the project/product manager as the person fighting to get a certain feature set into the release, and the release manager being the one who tries to keep unnecessary changes out of the release (for stability reasons, or to meet the deadline). Finding the balance of authority between these two people is IMHO a critical strategic issue. Without an explicit decision, there will be tension.
