I don't think the discussion is time sensitive.  We tried new things
with etch after the release, so we can probably try new things with
lenny after it releases.

That being said, at least chatting with the SRMs ahead of time to see
what they think of the idea seems like a good plan.  That doesn't need
to wait for things to settle down.

Cheers,
