Yes - and I think it is quite a bitmore important to discuss *when* is a
possible date, not just "we delay it" and "no we will not delay it". May
22 is probably not a good time (hey, I can think of several things with
say docs that would not be in a good shape due to the hurry), but I don't
think mid-july is good either.
