I can't comment on weekends, because I avoid weekends, but the system seems to be working much better now on weekdays.
I agree.
ACA is doing a great job of running the release program. It ain't broke so don't try to fix it..
Publishing the release dates or times would be a huge step backwards. In fact it would ruin the program in my view.
