Yes.

Really? There hasn't even been a pretest announced and distributed,
has there? Where is the announcement asking people to test the
pretest distribution?
What about the pretest testing period? Has that been reduced to
at most a few weeks now?
There are thousands of bugs reported now, including many newly
introduced. Do we really intend to ship a release only a month
or two after closing the addition of new features?
Not adding any more new features is one thing. Actually testing
those new features, and regression-testing old features, and
fixing known bugs are something else again.
