Hi,

as the so called release manager I would like to give an update where we
are with the release and the final release preparation.

You all know we passed the PPMC and IPMC vote successful, the first
important step towards our release.

The second important step is the final preparation what I would call the
release publishing process. This include updates of the download page
and several other pages that are related to the release. Preparing a
blog, the release notes etc. and reviewing this.

We did a good job here as team and many many hands were involved to put
everything together. I have also finished my final last minute tests and
think we are done. Based on the collected info and feedback from all of
you and my own tests I would say we are done and ready .

We can go live and can publish everything that is in our pipeline!!!

Potential minor problems can be addressed on the fly ;-)

I would like to say thank you to all of you for your hard work and the
patience with me and too many and too fast prepared snapshot builds and
potential RC's. The good thing is we learned again some things and can
improve the lessons we learned in the future.

But again thank you very much to all of you for the hard work.

Let's go public now!

Juergen
