As scheduled I just tagged the git tree and pushed the tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ the next relase is planned at the end of February. This is a bug fix release, we never had that many security advisories closed in a single release, and there is a lot of various bug fixes so users are really invited to upgrate to the new version !
