I don't see any show stoppers listed. I'm trying to track down a few small 
things, but overall I think we are getting close.
Let's aim for a release in about a week or so?

That means we need the missing pieces to the user manual (and I can help edit 
that), we need the missing translations, and we need a lot more testing :-)

Thanks

/D

PS: if I'm missing a major issue that we need to fix, first, please respond 
here and also file a GitHub issue (or link to it if it's already there)
