We also need to have a shared understanding that the schedule is there to be helpful to teams in cross-coordinating. Going over the schedule is an open process and it's also iterative. We have a chance to keep improving it with each release so it's as helpful as possible. The schedule shouldn't be seen as a blocker for making critical improvements. (I'm sure that Máirín wasn't looking to put a ton of extra hours in over a weekend, although I know it will be appreciated by many in the long run.) As we make the schedule for the F13 cycle we could introduce items to proactively get people to do constructive cross-checks on things like the default background earlier, so we aren't having to correct issues so late in the process. The schedule process for Fedora 13 will be run openly on the list as previously, so I hope interested people will take advantage of the opportunity to participate when it comes around shortly. -- Paul W.
