I'd be comfortable even with June 1, unless there is a substantial (and
vocal) group of people still unfinished at that time or expect to be.
June 30 at the latest, methinks, but that's probbaly too long.

PS: For good measure, I was filtering out the posts that had "spoiler"
on the subject line and so I missed this whole meta-thread until this
morning when I chanced upon a stray post. Thank you all for sticking
with the warnings by and large.
