It really should, but as long as the delay is not anticipated to be 
major and the release will be announced, why worry.?

And if you are planning a migration for the *exact day* it is released, 
 Good luck!! ;-)
I always plan for some delay beyond scheduled release dates just for 
this possibility.

In my experience the servers are swamped for the first few days, so I 
usually wait for a while to do the download, and then use a mirror. 
 Even if it is available on the 17th you likely would not have it 
downloaded for 1-2 days so a 1 day delay is nothing.
