I'm not really up to speed on the release process, but it seems to me
getting a point release out should be significantly easier than a major
release. What's the real difference between what you've outlined below
and providing a point release? We'd still need to branch off the
release, and we'd still need to run tests to make sure no broken fixes
go out, don't we?
