   So just to summarize it in short - release manager is NOT responsible for 
quality of the merged changes nor for the set of changes that are being 
prepared as release candidates. In both cases the authors are responsible - 
both for what goes in but also about the quality of what goes in. Release 
manager is a purely mechanical role to make the release happen, but the authors 
(with approval of committers who merge the changes) are driving both the scope 
and quality of the release. No-one else.. And the authors have a chance to 
verify their changes once the RC is out and have a chance to say "hey there is 
a blocker bug, I will fix it but for now let's remove it from the release".
   
   I think this is a very, very clear split of responsibilities here and I am 
explaining it here, so that it's crystal clear as different people might have 
different assumptions on what is the release manager's and author's role in the 
process, and when tests are done.
