AGGHH!

Let's not push out the general freeze even as far as sept 4th if possible. I'd suggest oct 31st. If we push out the general freeze until append is complete, we will delay having a stable release with append at least an additional month.

There's a 3rd option I'd support.  Feature freeze on Sept 4, except
for Append which gets a 2 week extension.  This allows us to start
stabilizing the rest of the code base while Append is finished up.
