I think it would make more sense for you to make the announcement than someone here, if you're up for it.
Sounds good.
After some off-list discussion about issues soon to hit the repository, I'll hold off on announcing and releasing until late Sunday or Monday.
In the meantime, I'll try to coordinate my announcement and the tarball placement with someone at the WMF.
At the risk of hijacking the thread, I'll say this. For 1.21, I would love for the tarball creation process to be something that we can do from Jenkins, such that the final manual copy step is something that goes from our Jenkins host, rather than a tarball produced on a particular developers machine.
Absolutely agreed. I'll try to work with Antoine on this since he has done some of this for the nightlies (https://integration.mediawiki.org/nightly/).
