The current feeling among core seems to be that we should allow the git
conversion to proceed according to Magnus' proposed schedule.  This
would mean that we will *not* be able to wrap either a 9.0 update or
9.1alpha1 releases this week.  What we'd probably try to do instead is
wrap 9.1alpha1 early next week, as the first attempt to generate
tarballs from the git repository, and then wrap 9.0beta5 (or rc1) later
in the week.  This slips the 9.0 schedule an extra week, but considering
that nobody seems to be doing anything about the open 9.0 issues, that
was likely to happen anyway.

If anybody's really unhappy with this timeline, speak up now.
