Just to be clear: if voting has to be finished by March 15, then
working backwards, the last date a new RFC can be submitted is this
Sunday:

- RFC discussion period starts: February 22
- RFC discussion period ends: March 8 (given the minimum of 2 weeks)
- RFC voting period starts: March 8
- RFC voting period ends: March 15 (given the minimum of 1 week)

Obviously those dates get shifted forward a week (so the last date for
a new RFC is March 1) if it's just that voting has to start by the
15th.

Would welcome other thoughts.
