Can you please clarify if your tarballs are public or not? A few mails ago you you said the instructions to get the packages where on a publicly accessible wiki, and now you are saying say users don't have acces to them? > and any bugs found in the early tars (not build related) should > be kept quiet, until the tars are officially announced.

Release blocking bugs should be reported immediately to this list or CC'ed to this list (I still remember in the 4.10 cycle someone reported what he thought was a blocker bug and assigned it to a regular developer in bugzilla and told noone else, yes, that's not helpful at all) Regular bugs I don't really care, Martin seems to want after the release, but he is "only" one developer.
