Considering that you were the one that proposed the release date, and you
are the only Release Manager could we then instead officially delegate
that task if sudden conflict arises?

No problem; doing a release tarball is not rocket science and I'd been
doing unofficial ones since I offered doing releases for 3.0 (when you
said you were no longer interested and wanted to focus in 3.1 instead).

Should I assume that with 3.1 released I should then be doing the 3.0
releases finally, or have you reconsidered?

There hasn't been an official announcement for this release (except the
unofficial one I did in ganglia-developers), feel free to use that message as
a baseline for the official announcement and call for testing, which should
also include ganglia-general and the ganglia-announce list IMHO.

But I would think that we could use some better references to documentation,
including references for upgrading instructions from previous releases or
the previous snapshots (specially if using our RPM packages for CentOS 4)
and a reference to known issues like :

* no support for C++ to create DSO modules
* no spoofing from modular metrics (use gmetric if spoofing is needed)
* race condition for tcpconn python metric (affects gmond -m)

and all others we said we will document and kept going and that I lost track
of already (as I wasn't the one doing that documenting)
