I think April is perfect. the EOL of RedHat 9 will be there and if these ppl switch
Fedora is where we'd want them to go right? kernel 2.6, Gnome 2.6, etc plus a long
6 month release gives kernel2.6 time to iron out some things, this should _not_ be a quick
release. It is probably going to be a defining release for Fedora most ppl are waiting
for a second release to see where its really going to stand in the market.
