Of course, Anthony is in a different time zone, so when he created the tag in his evening, I had all day, and the binaries would still be available when he got up the next morning.

That's a good point - if Barry is on the US west coast somewhere, it actually works out to about a 17 or 18 hour time advantage for those of us in eastern Australia (depending on daylight saving).

FWIW, I'd personally be fine with the trunk being frozen a day early if it was necessary to get the tags and binaries all ready on the day of release - just so long as it was mentioned in the release PEP.

Cheers, Nick.
