I guess the big question is that if we can't get enough big features in
6 months, do we still stay on the 6 month schedule? I know Tom said
folks don't have to upgrade --- that is true, but our releases do seem a
little lighter lately.
Six months would be June 1 beta, so maybe that is still a good target.
I agree we should not hold up beta for any feature. So maybe the plan
is June 1 beta, and we don't care if we have enough big features or not
--- does that sound good to everyone? Or should we be looking at May 1
as Tom originally suggested?
