It would be helpful if the core dev team would help us understand the 
release process with regard to critical outstanding issues.

For example, these three issues prevent deployment of professional apps 
on Linux:

Option control labels can't be seen when they have focus

Can't paste into other programs:

Can't paste from other programs:

As John noted, other platforms also have critical outstanding issues.

As much as we appreciate the steady stream of new builds, the feedback I 
see throughout the community is that we'd very much prefer longer RC 
periods in favor of fewer "Stable" releases that address a larger number 
of critical issues.
