I agree, but why not wait with the "official" release message until after KyngChaos has done his (excellent, can't thank him enough) job....?

Windows and major linux distros are done by Jurgen our release manager, hence why they come out right on time. I suspect in the future we will have build bots for each platform but at this point OS X is still the outliner and requires some domain knowledge for packaging only a few have. They normally don't take long to be made so just hold tight.

Well, that has happened now, but the KyngChaos site for Mac OSX still has 2.12. That is NOT a negative comment on that site, but it would be much nicer if the official release messages did not go out until AFTER all packagers have done their (great and much appreciated) work...

The count down on the website doesn't always mean the packages will be ready on release date, that is only the date/time that the code will be unfroozen and packages will begin being made. Some packages can take longer then others before they are up on the website, OS X for example. There is no "official" release until the banner is changed on qgis.org<http://qgis.org> and announcement is made on the mailing lists/twitter, etc. Packages are being made and will be up on the website when ready, best advice is to keep an eye there. You can normally get the builds from OSGeo4W if using Windows, however until the packages are out that isn't an official version even if on version 2.14, last minute changes might still need to happen.
