Hi All, I also lean towards getting the release out as soon as possible given that it had been delayed quite a bit and there is no major issue without a straightforward workaround (agreeing with Nico and Kostas). I am sure once people will start using the new features we will see more issues that should be fixed asap in 1.3.1.
Regarding the critical bug Till had found, we could add a line about it to the release notes so that people don't get blocked by it as there is a workaround possible.
