After all we used something close to this. The schedule is:

	+ Week 2:  3.7.0-rc1
        + Week 3: 
        + Week 4:  3.7.0-rc2
        + Week 5:  3.7.0-rc3
        + Week 6:  3.7.0-release
        + Week 7: 
        + Week 8:  3.7.1-rc1
        + Week 9:  3.7.1-rc2
        + Week 10: 3.7.1-release
        + Week 11: 3.7.2-rc1
        + Week 12:
        + Week 13: 3.7.2-rc2
        + Week 14: 3.7.2-release
        + Week 15: 3.7.3-rc1
        + Week 16:
        + Week 17: 3.7.4-rc2
        + Week 18: 3.7.4-release

By other words, I moved 3.7.0-rc3 and 3.7.1.rc1 and created space
between them. It is not ideal but we will do it better in the future
releases.
