I think there's no way that we wait more than one additional week to push
the fsync fix.  So the problem is not with scheduling the update releases,
it's with whether we can also fit in a 9.5 beta release before PGCon.

(I can't see doing a beta *during* PGCon week.  I for one am going to be
on an airplane at the time I'd normally have to be Doing Release Stuff.)

I know Josh doesn't like to do beta1 releases concurrently with back
branches because it confuses the PR messaging.  But we could make an
exception perhaps; or do all those releases the same week but announce
the beta the day after the bugfix releases.

Or we just let the beta slide till after PGCon, but then I think we're
missing some excitement factor.
