And bikeshedding is good because it reveals many potential issues. Clear, it needs time. RC1 might come after beta3 (or might not) which is roughly 1 month from now on. It is in your guys hands.

Clear, it can't be complete and accepted/declined in such a short period (though much time is lost discussing only this one case). That's why I wrote literally about a "rough draft".
