It is good to see dates now being set. I hope unlike HF24 that people take the time to really test out HF25. One month should be plenty o time, and I hope they do not wait for the last two days and then say, "Uh...oh...we found this issue.....here's our quick fix solution" lets try to avoid quick fix solutions, they never work, and they never get tested except in the field.
I think the process that has been undertaken to prepare HF25 has been excellent, and perhaps it will let outsiders see that when it comes to HIVE block Chain, you guys want to do it right and make sure the improvements are needed and serve a function.
