Thanks, Mike. Here's a potential schedule of release candidates. Is this 
unorthodox or too aggressive? Could you propose a more realistic schedule?

August 10 : Create branch and generate snapshot for testing

August 24 : Generate first release candidate

August 31 - September 7 : Generate second release candidate

September 15 : If necessary generate third release candidate with 
hopefully quick vetting

Regards,
-Rick
