If possible I think it makes sense to aim for the week of 11th, if there is any blocker or major issues that gets raised and for which we need to wait we can defer to the week of 18th.
As far as it's 2nd/3rd week of the month I don't think it makes any major difference. Obviously when Krisztian will be able to cut the release plays the biggest role here, so I'm willing to hear his opinion about what we can aim for.
