I wish you hadn't done that.  We shouldn't be making the branch until we get to beta.
We can't get to beta until a lot more bugs are fixed.  Everyone likes to
work on new features, but we need to get bug fixed to actually make releases.
I'm worried that we aren't going to make the time-based release schedule.
The only leverage I can see is feature freezes.
