Well, we could actually *follow* the schedule we outlined at the
Developer Meeting last year, including the triage periods.

I'll also say:
* we need to assign CF managers at least 2 weeks in advance of each CF *
we need to replace them if they get too busy to follow-through,
* and the last CF needs two managers.

We went pretty far off schedule this year because we didn't manage the
process. Especially given the rudimentary tools we have to work with,
we can't afford to do that.

I'd be happy to manage the first CF on June 15th, if nobody else wants to.
