Bug 778285 - Release howto should contain notice to maintainers...

...of official binaries

Add this point right after "Announce on the GNOME I18N mailing list."

Also remove the "wait for mirrors" thing at the end, in a subsection
of that point we say "as fast as possible" and that contradicts each
other.

Move the "properly chilled beverage" to the end where i belongs
(or perhaps it belongs where the build starts...)
