I think we need people in charge of this specific topic. We're largely
developers after all, not public relations managers.

I'll assume you didn't mean to imply I said anything close to the sort,
but for what it's worth I can't imagine anyone using that as their
argument is going to garner much support so may I suggest you leave
those who choose to troll alone?

Did I miss something, isn't the notion of an impending RC release
something we just came up with? We haven't released anything yet and
rather then making Derick wait another cycle to get his code that I know
he's worked hard to develop out the door, I think we should come to some
sort of agreement now.
