Sure, I would be willing.

Agreed, though I feel a little weird about creating releases for tags that
aren't in the official repo. Would that be acceptable from a community
stand-point? I'm honestly not sure.

Otherwise I think Anthony/Peter would probably still need to process a pull
for stable-y.x branch in advance before we do the tarball/release. Would
still help simplify things a bit though by keeping tasks compartmentalized.

Anthony, Peter: in the past, prior to release, I just sent an email with
a pointer to my github branch with the stable release tagged. Would a proper
pull request (with a for-stable-x.y tag or somesuch) be preferable?

If we opt to align the stable repo updates with the actual release, what kind
of lead time would we need prior to actual release?
