Do we have such a thing? I mean ... people can write PLIPs whenever they  
want :)

Do we have any understanding of how long it took us to jump through those  
hoops for 2.5 (at least from alpha to beta, etc. and what our projections  
are))? Or for 2.1? I think the interim time steps look reasonable, but  
it's hard to judge how long it actually takes to get enough testing and  
coding time.
