As I've already discussed with Larry, I think adding a week to the  
scheduled dates would be preferable. The original dates give pretty  
short notice and there are a number of open issues that would be good to  
resolve now in 3.4.2.  

  
It would also be good to get Guido's official verdict on PEP 476 (the  
switch to validating HTTPS by default) in time for 3.4.2\. Based on the  
previous discussion, Alex updated the PEP to suggest "just fix it" for  
all of 3.5, 3.4.x and 2.7.x (including the httplib SSLContext support  
backport in the latter case).

I think that would be feasible with an rc on the 20th, but challenging
if the rc is this coming weekend.
