Though sometimes this can be disappointing, especially if it was a project I was particularly interested in (as was the case when I couldn't promise to meet the desired timeline), I also realize this it is the nature of the business and would not want to spoil a future working relationship over something so trivial. That said, my advice to you is not to sweat it, most pro publishers are also pro about this.
