You're the arch lead for sparc, so you are in control "sparc" and |
| 7 |
"~sparc" keywords. You also control the snapshot used for the sparc |
| 8 |
release. So you ultimately control when things change on sparc. |

As for last-minute fixes, I think this is more of a communication and |
| 11 |
coordination issue, and of course we can and should communicate better. |
| 12 |
And we will. These kinks are to be expected as we're making a fairly |
| 13 |
major transition to a new release roadmap and a more open release |
| 14 |
process. 2004.1 should be a piece of cake compared to 2004.0 since we'll |
| 15 |
have the benefit of hindsight. |
