Any updates on this process? What's left to do, and what can people help with?
For the future, it would be great if we have the whole process documented and a way to keep track of where we are in the release process. That way, if the current release manager's time gets eaten up (for example, by school, or, if I had been the manager last September, a TBI), other members of the tarball cabal can step in and keep the ball rolling.
People get curious about this on an often enough basis, developers and end users. Having a page on mediawiki.org with the current release status of the next upcoming version would be nice (or something similar). mw-bot in #mediawiki usually has some idea if you ask it, but that's a bit obscure. ;-)
