Honestly, that seems awful soon. I would have thought maybe August 15th.
We have this discussion every year, but I would like to skip that.
+1 to 2015-07-15 and then the same schedule as this release. Constant fine tuning the dates doesn't really help, it just creates the impression that discussion might make the dates flexible which works against us, even though I might otherwise agree with them.
That allows us to release in Sept, without conflicting with CFs.
I suggest we go Beta1 on June 1, so we can discuss any problems arising in person in Ottawa. It's quicker than normal, but if we've lost a month or two we should just skip the usual "open items" chase, which can be done in parallel with users finding and reporting real bugs.
