Isn't this a bit academic now? Jeremy has been raising this at every weekly meeting for months. Maybe there were doubts in other countries but no-one in GridPP can have been in any doubt surely. For me the only open issue was for WN. Everything else should have been moved long ago. Is anyone even thinking about leaving an upgrade until the end of October, never mind November?

People should not regard deadlines as a target date, let alone the date when they start to think about doing something! From the GDB minutes:
this is not in conflict with what I said. The cream CE can be postponed
to the 30th of November if there is a clear plan and a reason to do it.
