Arun is handling the tarballs (release candidates and final releases), so the 
schedule is affected by how busy he is, but basically it should work like this 
(this is my understanding - the process isn't currently documented officially 
anywhere):

 1. publish a release candidate
 2. wait for a week (at least) for feedback  3. if there are significant 
changes done during this time, goto 1  4. if there are open release blocker 
bugs, fix them and goto 1  5. publish the final tarball

The list of release blocker bugs is here (see the "Depends on" field):
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63665

That list isn't set to stone - for example, I doubt that there will be any 
activity on 58758. I think Arun said that he intends to publish RC2 once he 
fixes 61262 - I don't know how soon that will happen. We will anyway have at 
least one more release candidate, so the release is at least a week away.

As for new features, I don't think we have anything major this time (shell 
completion is cool, though). I haven't done the release notes yet (should do 
soon...), so I don't have a clear picture of the details.
