Good tip.
I created a release package. First had to find a computer with Windows, because 
it needs wine (I didn't want to learn wine on FreeBSD today), but ok it builds 
now.
Now I'll wait for my precious bug fix to get committed to 6. :-)

Ronald.

They aren't dependent on one person, it's just that one person usually
 gets into the groove of tagging the code, rolling the release, calling
 for the vote, doing their own personal testing, uploading the packages,
 updating the website, making announcements, etc.
Anyone can do all that, honestly, but the generally speaking the torch
 of "release manager" seems to pass from one committer to another every
 few months or so.
Looks like jfclere was doing them from around the end of 2009 until now,
 and before that it was Remmy.
If you're dying to try 6.0.33, feel free to just check out the 6.0 trunk
 - -- it gets very little activity other than reviewed bug fixes, etc. so
 if you build it yourself you should be good-to-go. When the "official"
 package is released, you can "upgrade" but it will likely be the exact
 same code.
