The RM actions after signatures have been collected are to stage the release (`release.py move-to-dist`) and announce it (update index.html and email announce@). Cheers, Daniel P.S. Since I'm already replying: I don't think giving the reader a choice between "to allow anybody testing the release" and "to allow anybody planning to test the release" is helpful. I suggest to pick one and drop the other :-)
