Yes.

March has been mentioned by a few people now, and now you're even
suggesting that /even with no further commits/ it would take that
long. To me that seems overly pessimistic. The code review backlog in
/trunk/phase3 was 775 revisions last time I checked (Saturday around
01:15 UTC). It shouldn't take 3 months to catch up with that.

Of course "less than 3 months" doesn't necessarily mean it'll be a
manageable amount of time, and there's WMF-deployed extensions to
consider too. So I do think we should look at where the unreviewed
revs are concentrated; if it turns out they're mostly recent, that'd
be a strong case for moving the branch point into the past.
