I'd rather rely on people being careful in what they commit. This used
to work in previous years. This time it is different perhaps because we
let the release drag on for too long?

Could you please give an explanation of this impression? Was this a
general statement that before any gui release we should have such a
period or was this based on any specific know limitation of gui?
With regards to gui I still don't see you as an outsider, you were the
one that committed my first patches to gui and commented on them. In my
thinking you still know a lot more about gui than I do.
