Uhm.  If I've been anything wrt the 9.3 schedule, happy is not it.  We
completely failed to manage it in any kind of sane way.  I vote +1 for
keeping the same commitfest schedule this year, but please let's do
everyone a favor and make sure we get some more (stricter?) management
of the commitfests this time.  Not closing the November commitfest in
March would be appreciated, I think.
