I don't think the issue is just bug reporting for a RC though. As
mentioned, we've already got a very long blocker list, which is still
growing.

I think a bigger issue is development resources and developer's time
availability. At the current rate of bug closing we're very likely to still
have a large number of these issues outstanding at the end of the month.

I'm in favor of a longer freeze period for next release.
