I'm prefer to add a new milestone of 'day before release' and put it
there. I think after the 'go' some folks who would be helpful in making
the announcement have more time to devote to it. Also, it would seem sad
to me to be 'go' except for an announcement, and slip a week.It is sad. But it is also something we should want. Shipping bits without telling people how to consume them (docs) or that they exist (release announcements) is essentially not shipping. We need docs and release notes to block releases. They are an integral part of attracting users and contributors.regards,bex
+1,
The magazine article is used by people making reviews of the new Fedora (for example in podcast or videos), I think this is a critical part of the release and we should give ourself sometime to polish them. I hope that having it as a release criterion will allow us to focus on it. If I am not mistaken we experienced the same situation during F28 release cycle so the current situation is far from being ideal.
