If we were going to allow SOC to determine our release schedule, we'd
probably have to push back beta freeze at least two months --- we
couldn't expect to go beta immediately after someone submits code,
especially if the someone is a student whose code will need review
before it goes in.
I'm not particularly eager to do this, especially not when we don't
even have any committed SOC projects. There's always the next release.
