Yes, because setting a date won't put a fire under upstreams ass.

And I imagine lots of the blocking status is in upstreams hands.

( I mean, if we can fix it ourselves, great, but if we were able to do
that, surely we should also be able to send those fixes upstream, and
surely, upstream would be eager to accept them, but otherwise, upstream
might be the only people who know how to reliably fix their code )
