I'm not doing any with Support distributions in the modern zooping age. >From recent votes there's at least 4 people who don't like distribution costs at all, and that's that. And it's up to 28 days depending on when it's submitted in relation to the beginning of the week, so time is cutting between 1/3 and 1/2. It serves two purposes: it's still a long time between bugs turning up and us waiting for them to be fixed, even a 1/3 benefit helps. And if it's racing against a bad proposal, even an edge of a day helps. -G.
