<jonadab> They don't need to pick a release date, they just need to decide "Yes, we want to do a 3.6.1 release now" and start working on it.
<jonadab> And _document_ (at least internally) the process of doing the release, so that they have a checklist to go by next time.
<jonadab> (A member of the dev team has disclosed that there is no such documentation, and nobody remembers everything because they've done all of one release in the last forever.)
<scorchgeek> pff, who needs documentation
<scorchgeek> people will just magically figure it out!
<jonadab> Only people who aren't omniscient need documentation, apparently.
<jonadab> I guess the Dev Team can just think of everything.
