The vote has been cancelled in order to fix some of the issues that have been reported (at least, because it is preventing the tests to pass, the DST issue reported by Jacques and analyzed/fixed by Christian). I am going to prepare a new set of candidate release files soon and then I will start a new vote. Thanks for all your feedback!
