Actually, you proposed beta2 as the branch time for this release, and no
one objected. I think we will have to be flexible and see how heavy the
patching is during beta, but I think the latest would be on release
date. Our releases are very solid now, so we have very little patching
after release, and now that I and Tom are fulltime, we can handle the
load of double-patching better.
