One might also ask, what's the rush getting F18 out? Why not
just declare that as a one-off it's going to be a 9 month cycle.
(libvirt/libguestfs/selinux integration could certainly use that time ...)
Given the current state of F18 I agree let's lengthen this release cycle
up to 9 months and arguably we should lengthen the whole development
cycle to 9 months from now on.
