I don't think we have one.   I wish we did, but it's a matter of
resources, and being release manager is already a huge amount of work.

I definitely don't think anybody wants to make a release where
optional doctests fail. Currently, I don't think anybody
systematically runs the optional tests.  I tried to at various points
over the years, on at least one system; however, it's a huge amount of
work to maintain.

** Anybody want to volunteer to maintain testing of each Sage beta
release and a well-defined subset of the optional packages and tests,
on at least one platform? **
