( ) If this is a stable release, make sure we have a <release> tag
inside desktop/gimp.appdata.xml.in for this upcoming version. Some
installers may feature more prominently software with recent
releases if the appropriate tag was set (e.g. GNOME Software has a

localizable).
( ) Wait until the date specified in the announcements, use this time
to get bug fixes applied which don't modify strings.
