Correction: if there are 0 critical issues, the first release
candidate for 2.16 will happen in 6 days.  However, I currently
see 2 Critical issues.

I think this is the best solution as well.  It might be nice to

disliked the new font could go about replacing it, but we've never
viewed documentation as holding back programming work in the past.
So go for it.
