The current schedule starts the "create the release announcement" on
the day of the Go/No-Go meeting. I don't think that makes much sense:
the announcement can be pre-written and edited to track changes in
release dates or Changes status. I'll go ahead and move that to *end*
on the Go/No-Go day. My concern remains what happens if the
announcement isn't ready by the deadline? We either proceed like we've
done in the past and risk a rush to publish at the end, or we declare
the release No-Go, in which case there's no practical difference from
what I propose.

The Go/No-Go meeting is the only real decision point we have, so IMO
it makes sense to add this in there. The Release Readiness Meeting is
more informative than decision-making (although it sounds like it may
be time to revisit that meeting more broadly, so maybe we change
this?)

Agreed. To be clear, that is not what I am proposing. I've probably
been sloppy in my wording, but I'm thinking of this as a criterion
exclusively for the Go/No-Go process.

Right. If it's "close" (for some value of close) then Marketing can
say they are go and get it finished by Monday. Of course, the
counter-argument to this is that a squishy criterion that we can just
accept if we want to isn't much of a criterion.
I like this. I read this as we are "no-go" if marketing is no-go. If they are "go" and we don't like their definition of go, let's take it up with them when it happens.
