I'm willing to believe that bugs found in the WMF branch have been fixed on master, but it seems obvious that new bugs would also have been introduced. Still, the pre-merge review + rapid release cycle would probably make master more stable than it was for other releases. > If there are problems we'll find them in the release candidate period. > And by that time we'll have had a new wmf branch as well to see how the > latest code > performs on wmf.

I think the thing to do is to make a new RC from master (as you suggest) and organize a triage of 1.20 bugs. I'll also put a comment on all those bugs inviting people to participate in the triage so that we have a way to gauge interest and have people test them against the beta cluster (or a 1.20 installation on labs). I can hold a triage for blockers at UTC1100 on Tue, October 2 (http://hexm.de/lr). At this point, there are over 100 non-enhancment bugs marked for 1.20. Please help trim the list before then.
