Does there need to be a milestone date set at the Apache

No.
Making a release is a primary act of an Apache project. Successful
execution of a release process is perhaps the biggest milestone towards
graduation from the Incubator.
The project should perform this process mostly on its own, with advice
from its mentors. There's ample documentation, e.g.:
http://www.apache.org/dev/index.html#releases
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html
Many projects maintain a page describing the details of their particular
release process. Some examples are:
http://httpd.apache.org/dev/release.html
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease
Perhaps someone could start drafting something like this for
Thrift?
