I'm open to the possibility for sure, the meeting usually winds up being
either a straightforward rubber stamp or a dissection of why we can't
ship, neither of which really really needs to happen. It's possibly a
good thing to have just as a failsafe in case something really odd
happens, I guess. But then, we also have the release readiness meeting,
I'm not really sure we need to have a go/no-go that's separate from that
now we have a clear release blocker process.
