I'd recommend to make such a party at least one week after that date.
Seeing that Alpha and Beta both slipped (as well as most (or all?) other
releases in the past), it's _very_ likely that F9 final will slip too...

Of course you could still make a party with RC1, if final slips (unless
RC1 slips too and even that one is getting late for the party).

Just as a side note and only my 5 ct ;)
