I thought about this as well, but:
- Mandriva says July would be perfect (they're shipping KDE by default, so
they're pretty important)
- It would just miss the coming openSUSE release, but align pretty well with
their follow-ups (if I understand coolo correctly)
- It's before Ubuntu's feature freeze (which is, I think in August, and aligns
well in the future due to the same rhythm)
- We'll be missing Debian Lenny in any case (even with 4.0).
I didn't really find out how other distros release exactly (more input data
welcome!). I find the above pretty good arguments for July, and not later.
(Also considering that we don't want to wait too long with 4.1.)
