We still have the various intel graphics regressions to fix, and the change to allocate PCI regions top-down has resulted in some issues. So I doubt I'd be ready to release 37 before xmas. And even if it does turn out that I could do the release early, as you say, I don't really think anybody wants the merge window over the holidays. So practically speaking I think we'll end up with a quiet holiday, with the 2.6.37 release happening early January. Unless something bad happens and I'd need to push it out further. Which doesn't look all that likely right now, but who knows?
