The Release Guidelines said to "give people time to test the actual bits" after the [TEST] mail and then moved straight to phase 4, without saying how long that time is. This adds a paragraph at the end of phase 3: a week is the recommended test period, the decision is the release manager's, and a shorter period is a legitimate choice rather than a violation. Phase 4 now opens with "once the test period is over".

Companion change to the release skills in apache/struts (linked in the first comment).

Phase 3 ended with "give people time to test the actual bits" and
phase 4 started straight away, so the guidelines never said how long
the test build stays open. A week is now the recommended length, with
the decision left to the release manager.
