No. It's not. Sebastian has advocated that the only way to "push" a project
forward means _skewing_ technical terms for release states and _disregarding_
matter-of-fact criteria for a release.
Sorry, but at this stage of development this is way off and demonstrates a
pretty poor single strategy attempt.
That being said I believe that Sebastian has awesome Community Management and
Marketing skills, no doubt.

With that attitude you can justify _any_ release date. Yes there will be bugs
in the final release. But if we have the chance to ship an RC1 without any
known relevant showstoppers a week later (without having the final release
date being affected by slipping even) then I'd certainly prefer it like that.
