The release was made, tagged and uploaded jannuary 14th its public since then
also the IRC topic has been updated with the release january the 14th

Isnt it better if the webpage is consistent and also points to the 14th ?

Testing should have been done before the release was tagged and the archieve
published. The branch was available for testing for quite a while too
Also I do test releases before i tag them but iam just one and doing pretty
much the same tests each time so theres systemic bias

I imagine we will have a 5.0.1 probably in a few weeks as more bugs are
found and fixed

Also, thanks for helping with the website update, i certainly appreciate
that you are helping here 

thx
