I concur with Josh on this ... that kinda wastes the 'two months of 
summer' when ppl are really sporatically around, so no really testing will 
get done ... I'd rather see a Sept 1st feature freeze, once most ppl are 
back from holidays and are a bit more steady ... it means those working on 
the big features have a few extra months to hammer out the kinks, and 
those  testing are a bit more 'consistent/focused' then they are when they 
are planning, or on, holidays ;)
