Re: holdups for 2.12

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

Hi guys!

AFAIAC, the only issue is the macos gui on 10.5.  I planned to abuse a
co-worker's macbook, but I couldn't find time to do it, and I am fine
with releasing as-is.

I just moved (finally! birds instead of buses in the morning), so I
still don't have much time, but I can cut a stable/2.12 branch, and
start the mechanics for rolling binaries.

The concerns left are related to the actual release process: do we
have a nice announce page on lilypond.org, a nice blurb to post, etc.?
 Should we bump version numbers for .ly files?
