Yes, that document is kept up to date with the release procedure,
although it may need some changes for meson.

If you guys would like, I can look at rolling a new devel release.
Is the codebase in a releasable state currently?

Fwiw, I've not been involved in the graphics field lately; it may make
sense, if another established Cairo contributor has
time/experience/inclination to take over the release management duties I
can provide training.
