Thanks, Steven for those links.

Ion,

Gulp.. Those are a lot of changes. Hence my immediate instinct would be, 
no you can't merge those at this point. But perhaps someone else in the 
release team has a dissenting opinion?

Note, it's not that your changes haven't been tested.. It's that any 
dependents to your changes in the release branch may not have been 
tested. Hence there's a really high risk of breakage IMO.
