I am perfectly willing to do more releases and as far as I can tell, 
all the resources we need to do a release do still exist.  The hardest 
part about doing a release is preparing the release notes HTML files.

The code base is typically kept in a releasable state without loose 
ends.

We are likely to see more security reports for the next year or two 
until it becomes too expensive (e.g. CPU time) to find any remaining 
issues.
