It will still take us couple of day to work on release announcement if the VOTE 
passes. Can we finish up docs in that timeframe? 


Thanks

I agree - announcing a release prior to docs availability hurts the project 
because users fail in installation and upgrades.
The gate in my mind is docs readiness - thats an integral part of the release 
process, even if the repo is separate.

Animesh, whats your reason to want to push this out earlier?
