It has never been the Idea to release a version only based on the sanity tests alone. Sanity tests are only the "final step". These must be backed up by as much tests as possible. And they are. Jörg just put the information on the wiki page, what automated tests are run. Each native lang team is encouraged to run a full set of manual Tests. Everybody is envited to run automated tests and report the bugs. So "run only sanity tests" can never be the base for a GO/NOGO decision.
