Submission Time Frame

Does anyone think that 3 weeks is too long for the submission time frame? Here's what I was thinking:

- Submission thread will open in 10 days;
- 3 week period of open submission after which the thread will be locked;
- Following the thread locking, readers will have 5 days to review all stories before voting thread opens.

This sounds reasonable, but will open the voting close to Xmas, which is traditionally a time of low forum traffic. You might consider delaying the voting until the 26th, or the beginning of next year.
