Thanks nobel! can you please ping me here so I can kick off another RC.

Regarding the bugs that should / should not block a release I think
it's hard to say which one should and that is my biggest problem here.
I think with more frequent releases and more point releases we can
make the intervals shorter and bugs get fixed quicker. I think it's
also the responsibility of the other committers to maybe go back a
step and ask themself if a bug should block a release and only if the
are absolutely +1 on respin mention it on the release thread? To me as
a RM it's really hard to draw the line. I also think we should not
push stuff into the release branch unless it's the cause of the
respin, we should work towards a stable branch an every change makes
it less stable again IMO.

just my $0.05
