OK, here start the problems.  Development already started, so April 1st is
already 5 months development.  Add 1 month because no one is willing to
hold people to these dates.  So that's 6 months.  Then for 6 months of
development, you need at least 2 months of beta.  So we're already in the
middle of July, everyone is on vacation, and we'll easily reach the 9
months -- instead of 6.
