Bryan Davis pointed out that this is likely to disrupt the beta cluster at
least to some extent.

We have a lot of development teams using beta labs for pre-deploy feature
testing every week, and Mon/Tue/Wed are the busiest times for beta labs in
the weekly deploy schedule.  I think people using beta labs would prefer
downtime Thu/Fri instead of Tue/Wed, because the last weekly scheduled
deploy is on Wednesday.

Thanks,
