Sounds good -- can we get a firm commitment that this is our schedule?
I think RobLa wants the reverse: a firm commitment from *us* that this is our schedule. It looks good to me too.
Yup, that's basically the idea. What I outlined is conservative in some respects (I suspect many people probably still think we could buckle down and get something out by end of August), but I haven't exactly exhaustively planned for all contingencies. We've got a lot of unaccounted-for fixmes, and there's probably some blocking bugs lurking in the database. Also, there's not really a plan for formal testing, and not a lot of room in that timeline to make it happen.
In short, there is much that could go wrong with this release, but I'm guessing (rather blindly) there's just enough time to make it work if we're committed to make this happen. I'm willing to do my part. Everyone else willing to do theirs?
