That makes no sense. The rc cycle for 4.4 was _longer_ than usual, not
unusually short. Exactly because I expected people to be off a bit
over the holidays. And while I have occasionally been off by a few
days for individual rc releases, every single 4.4 rc was on a Sunday
afternoon.

I've pulled the tree, but am baffled by your pull request.
