Since I make a habit of replying to myself on threads -- 

We had an introductory "release day planning" conference yesterday, and
amidst other topics, a mini-slip until Tuesday was discussed.  I
honestly don't recall whether there was a decision to do it at that
point, but there may well have been.  In any case, if there's a blame to
be found here, I'm sure it's on me, since I didn't think to raise the
alert flag for this group at that time.  I'll be more vigilant about
this going forward -- apologies to everyone.
