Status update: There are a few remaining crashes / security issues which i think
we should fix and include before the release. Iam working on that currently.

When thats done depends on 
1. any delays (bikesheds, distractions, headaches, good weather that makes me ignore
   this and go for a walk or maybe going for a walk occasionally actually helps 
   my efficiency who knows, ...)
2. influx of more security reports (fuzzer and any human reports), there where
   several new reports in the last 2 weeks which fall in the "I think that should
   be fixed before the release" category
3. murphies law and anything else unexpected

Thanks
