I agree with Jeremy on this one.  At this point, the Devil we know is better 
than the Devil we don't.  While the software may look good to you in your 
testing, any number of things can go wrong in the build process leading up to 
the release, and there just aren't enough days left to be really vetted.  I'd 
much rather see this go into -testing right after release and get some end 
user eyes on it before moving to -final.
