Thanks for replies, Peter & Bernd. So far only positive feedback :), thus am 
slowly starting to prepare my work.
Still waiting for reply from Eike though as well, given he has been at least 
release manager before :)

Today started to use self-built Konversation from latest 1.7 branch (using 
German translation catalog), to dog-feed myself what I hope we can release 
soonish as 1.7.6. Not being someone using all bells & whistles of what can be 
done with IRC, but at least I cover my daily plain use cases for testing.

What branches/version/packages is everyone else using?

So unless there are objections (and once Eike has also replied) I would see to 
target
    Monday, September 28th,
as 1.7.6 release date. Sounds good?

And have that as last release from that branch, unless grave bugs are 
reported, especially regressions that have made it into the codebase in the 2 
years since 1.7.5.

The next days I will see to make sure the release is done in the tradition of 
the previous releases, like updating & adding an entry to 
konversation.kde.org.
To start, who is in charge of that website? Would I be the one to add the new 
info there? If so, who could give me access? 

Cheers
Friedrich
