Sounds like we need to add further humans who are able to process updates
and/or work on the alphas/beta/GA releases, to reduce the load on that
one overworked person, and not have one activity blocking the other. I'm 
sure people have thought of this already, but it seems like we need to push
it up the priority, as we've been in this situation of having updates 
delayed by alpha/beta/GA releases very many times before now.
