I think it sets bad precedence to downgrade our confidence in the  
release.  Again, my position is that it's better to stick to the same  
development processes we've always used, fix the most egregious  
problems in 3.0.1 with no API changes, but spend most of our energy on  
a 3.1 release in 6 months.
