It seems unusual that such a precise time would be placed on the release already. I think the date is fairly arbitrary and is just to give people an idea. If problems show up in the tree around that time, I'm sure they would get fixed and the release delayed to make sure they are fixed. That is the beauty of free software. A release won't be made just because it is deemed time, it will be made when it is a good time. I'm sure most on this list know all this, so most of that was for you, Justin.
