OT: FOSS Brutal Honesty

I've been in the software development business for over twenty-five years. Throughout that time I have been asked on innumerable occasions when something would be done. Frequently, I did not know the answer but, "I don't know," was never acceptable regardless of how truthful it was. With that introduction, I visited the project schedule (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Core/Schedule) on the Fedora Project web site to see when FC6T2 would be out. What I saw was (sorry about the ASCII table):

Day             Month           Event

14              June            FC6 Test1 Development Freeze

21              June            FC6 Test1 Release

19 July FC6 Test2 Development Freeze, feature freeze -- currently in day to day slip. no sooner than 27 July

REPLY HAZY      ASK AGAIN LATER FC6 Test2 Release

23              August          FC6 Test3 Development Freeze
...

I would like to buy a beer (or their drink of choice) to whoever had the guts to answer this truthfully and put this up.

Cheers,
Dave
