Is there a schedule for the 1.19 release?
Is http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.19/Roadmap#Deployment_schedule what you are looking for?
Nope -- that covers when we pushed 1.19 onto the servers, which was already done. The tarball release is still waiting.
I caught Robla on IRC yesterday and apparently things are a bit behind:
- there's a couple remaining bugs that need to be squished
- folks have been busy with other projects and haven't gotten to the
tarball release yet
but we should be catching up soonish.

Quick update:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.19/Roadmap#Status
My understanding is that we just solved the last bug blocking the release of the tarball for third-party administrators: a regression in which users of Internet Explorer reading in right-to-left languages did not see a toolbar. Therefore we aim to have a tarball release out by the end of next week (27 April 2012), after concentrating on deploying MediaWiki 1.20 to Wikimedia sites this week.
Incidentally, some folks are making efforts to update the status spaces on those activity pages more often, as you can see at the Platform Engineering hub page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Platform_Engineering and at the Features hub: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Features_engineering .
