Btw. Thanksgiving conflict is known, but we decided not to move

I really think having this meeting during the second largest US holiday
is a very poor idea, especially since almost everybody working on
anything we're likely to decide no-go for is in the US, as are many of
the people whose views will be needed.
Also note that even if they can show up /sometime on Thanksgiving day/,
which is unlikely enough to begin with, many if not most families
celebrate with a mid-afternoon meal. That's right where this meeting is
scheduled for.
I was one who slightly favoured Thursday. As Jaroslav said, the
reasoning is that this week the extra day could be *really important*,
with the timing of the fedup work. We are aiming to build RC1 today;
realistically speaking the chances that fedup works perfectly first time
are not high, so I was figuring on needing at least an RC2. Given that,
Wednesday seemed over-optimistic to do the meeting. I think it's
understood that we won't make a controversial Go call on Thursday; it'll
be either a clear Go, otherwise slip.
What about Friday?
I think we agreed previously that Thursday was as late as we could go
while giving time for staging and so on. QA could do go/no-go 10 minutes
before release, but other groups need more time, so it's up to them to
decide how far we can push it.
Friday is also a holiday in the U.S., I think, BTW - the notorious
'black Friday'...
Friday is a normal work day for most people (although some people will take it
off to get a longer weekend :))
