I've been numbering things like crazy lately:

1. Releasing is easy.
2. Releasing gives us publicity (announcement on freshmeat.net, etc).
3. I'm completely willing to release now and then again a week later.
4. I don't really see a difference between releasing 1.5 now and then =
1.6 next week vs. releasing 1.5beta now and then 1.5final next week.
5. I try to avoid making lots of changes to code and then releasing =
without waiting a few days to let the dust settle.  And these changes =
for multiple source directories seem pretty large, to me
6. There are a lot of changes in 1.5 that I'd like to get out the door.
