I have no objections against an extension, if it helps delivering more, and stable features in the release.
My proposal would hence be to set the 1.12 cutoff date to the weekend of > the 7th/8th and fork the release-1.12 branch on Monday Nov. 9th. Side comment: In the last feature freeze discussion, there were no objections against my proposal to delay the branch forking until master is stable. This probably means that we'll have a phase of a week or two after the feature freeze where no new features are allowed to be merged, and we solely focus on fixing bugs. The purpose is to avoid the tedious merging of fixes to two branches.
