My suggested drop dead date is next Monday (6/8) with the actual release on
6/9.  We want to get it out before PLDI, but a few more days probably
doesn't matter at this point.

After this one, I also really want to see us switch back into making
smaller releases every 6-8 weeks instead of large releases every 6-8
months...
