In the case of Marmotta, some of us we are frequently reading general@incubator for learning about other podlings (releases, votes and so on). So what helped in our case was to forward the timeline as soon it was discussed here, so he had some more days for the report preparation.

For October's report, the timeline was:

  Sep 26: timeline fixed by ipmc
  Sep 29: sent to all podling
  Oct 02: report's deadline
  Oct 06: shepherd reviews
  (...)

Write the report itself does not take so long. But sometimes podlings may require some discussion about the wording of some details, which at the end means time. Therefore, what about send the reminder as soon as the timeline is fixed?

That are my two cents.

Cheers,

P.S.: Apologize for the possible inconveniences caused by the circumstance the the last Marmotta release was accepted one day after the deadline. E preferred to update the report than to leave such information out of the current report, even if we submitted a bit over the deadline.
