I think we are hitting a well documented feature of open source here, Mike. If someone is reporting it, someone is testing it. if someone is testing it someone is using it. Meaning the reported issues are being used. If it is by one or by one percent is not or should not be important. The fact they are slowing the release is because the testing is slow and hardly automated. Those that are automated are no issue.
@Animesh: you are giving an argument for releasing release candidates. We have discussed the cons of that extensively. The fact that 4.2 is so loaded with new features is due to the slow testing. I see your point about new issues, but these are due to 'only having 72 hours' per vote round for things that are not automatically tested. Maybe you are right and we should leave some behind to save the whole.
