First, I wonder why you ask personally me for this. Why not ask the debian-boot team? I am acting as i18n coordinator for the installer, however that does not strictly include reponsibility for the original (English) content of those documents. Second: now that you have asked, the installation-guide should be mostly release-ready; one can consider an exception here, which is Secure Boot. This functionality has been added in a last minute rush into the installer, and thus is not properly documented in the installation-guide. However, the guide is still release-ready despite this, if you ask me. When it comes to the release-notes, I mailed a short proposal for this to debian-boot weeks ago, but got no answer. And I already pointed you to this mail some days ago. So, let's see if debian-boot core team provides some opinion here... (Note: due to moving my home to another city, I will be cut of from powerful internet connection within the next days, reducing my activity to smartphone capabilities, so expect low responsibility during next weeks.)
