Absolutely. I thought that we had adopted this proposal:

http://lilypond.org/~graham/gop/gop_3.html

If so, it should be clear which of the recent 2.17.x are stable.

Just cut a release based on that code. Add some doc updates and
translations if they are available, or make them known issues if not. As
Janek says, anything else goes into a branch.

Cheers,
Colin.
