Something that bothers me is the (to me at least) unbelivably
short 12 day Test/release time for 2.0.5. The Alpha was released
and 12 days later 2.0.5 was released.
I wonder if I am alone in thinking that that is *way* too short
of a time? I wonder if the release team tends to get a bad
case of release itis?
It seems to me like 30 days would be a more reasonable period, and
if substantial problems show up, there should be another period
with another release.
After all, almost *any* bug found in a pre-release kit should be
considered serious. Almost all (substantial) bugs should have been
removed by that time.
