One benefit I see to announcing as early as possible is that it lets binary package maintainers do their thang a day earlier, ideally completing their independent verifications and packaging/publishing steps about the same time that the mirrors are all caught up. I don't know if that benefit outweighs the mild "tease" of announcing a release that maybe some folks have a hard time finding, or what. (Color me "generally indifferent", too.) -- C.
