I agree with Jan.  I think a week slip is the only realistic action,
given the blockers and holidays, without resorting to a huge amount of
hero testing.  Frankly, I'd be kind of angry if Fedora as a project
expected that to happen.

I thought we highlighted the holiday situation as a concern in
previous discussions but I can't find them at the moment.  If we did,
I'm surprised we didn't proactively slip at that point.
