Thanks to all maintainers who responded here. I did not find any 
blockers for branching and hence release-3.7 has been branched with the 
following patch being the divergence point from master:

commit 95f6e297a0a2349235a3258569dcc019aafe46df
Author: Jeff Darcy <jdarcy at redhat.com>
Date:   Mon Apr 13 16:46:57 2015 -0400

     doc: correct omission of author credit for Translator 101

 From here on, we would need patches to be explicitly sent on 
release-3.7 for the content to be included in a 3.7.x release. Please 
ensure that you send a backport for release-3.7 after the corresponding 
patch has been accepted on master.

Thanks again to everyone who have helped us in getting here. Look 
forward to more fun and collaboration as we move towards 3.7.0 GA!

-Vijay
