I don't think anyone would mind slipping the release a few hours.

It matters a whole lot for the press in Europe -- likely one of the reasons why big announcements from international companies based in the US often tend to be 10:00am Eastern time (+/- one hour) -- that way you get the press people from Europe (still working) and the US (started working) in one go and get more attention on the internet within a few hours.

Two or three hours later than 10am EST most computer journalists in Europe likely are at home or on their way home; when they start working on the next day it's old news then and some might just drop it.

IOW: My vote goes to stick to 10am EST, at least for the real Fedora releases.
