The role of release manager isn't an easy one and I applaud you for stepping up.

>From my PoV the next release of Fedora, 21, isn't due until mid
October due to the massive changes so I'm happy to see it delayed for
a few weeks if that helps the others land features in this release
rather than slipping them to the next.
