Prior to issuing a release like this, it should instead be made 
public as a "stable release candidate" with full installer on the 
downloads page for review by anyone. After the bugs are worked 
out and some time has elapsed, the stable RC is simply declared 
"stable final" and re-released as such with the usual big 
announcement.
