The main issue from my standpoint is that the Release Coordinator should work with the Testing Coordinator. Brandon and I were trying to work with Robert to train another on doing releases, and when I got back that afternoon from shopping, RC1 was built and up on sourceforge with a rather large bug. Had we simply waited a day, we would have been able to ship an RC1 without that single bug. I just wanted us to look good.
I think the TC is an important position that ReactOS needs, due to it's complexity. However, I have decided to no longer continue as TC, if I was even TC to start with.
It's arguments like these that hurt ReactOS more than anything.

[CSH] So, unless you get the right to block a release on your own, you won't be TC?
TC and RC can work together, but blocking a release indefinitely is not acceptable IMHO. Get a new release date, tell everyone about the new release date (and why the release is delayed). If people disagree, they can call for a vote on the subject to settle the matter.
