I am not sure how it would help to place the release day immediately after the off-week everybody has stayed off the keyboard, though. I would prefer to see fully working weeks during the pre-release period so that people can work on last minute regression fixes, so I hoped it would work much better to release before the holiday week begins, rather than after it ends. But of course I am open to inputs. FYI, I plan to be offline _after_ the Thanksgiving week.
