For this, the best thing to do is to mark bugs in the bug-tracker with the `critical' severity. I.e. any bug you think need to be fixed before we can release Emacs-23 should be marked `critical'. On the contrary, any bug which should not prevent the release should not be marked `critical' (if that bug is more severe than just `normal', then mark it as `important', as is the case for #620).
