I'm not sure that there has been any definitive issue tracker for releases, at 
least not for the 3.1.x releases.  The road map going forward has been 
basically left up to the community.  For 3.1.0, .1 and .2 releases, I 
volunteered as the release manager with a lot of help from Bernard.  For me, it 
was just a matter of recognizing that there was enough new functionality or bug 
fixes to warrant a new release.  At the time it was basically being driven by 
the modular metric functionality.  The 3.1.2 release of Ganglia basically 
finished off all of the functionality that I had in mind.  But I'm sure that 
there is more that could be done in that area.  At one point we had created a 
wish list which was published on the wiki site 
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ganglia/wiki/ganglia_wish-list.  I don't think 
that these items were ever entered into bugzilla as enhancements and I'm also 
not sure how accurate the list is anymore.  It should probably be updated.   
With all of the work that you and others have done recently, it might be a good 
time to produce a 3.1.3 release.  You might want to take a look at the Ganglia 
wiki page http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ganglia/wiki/how_project_works under 
the section "Release Manager and Additional Release Information" for an idea of 
how it was done in the past.  Anyway, if you think it is time to release 3.1.3, 
I'll support that.
