I said: Responses should be made by Tue 29 Oct 2019 08:27:02 PM UTC. And I released at: Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2019 10:19:29 +0100 So really, I was a few minutes late :) I generally just wait for the big testers to come back with responses. If I have all of them looking good, I often times release early depending on what is happening with my travel and other things. But this time, I actually took the whole time I said I would. thanks, greg k-h
