I am of the opinion that even if there is a single bugfix that would
help some users, we should do the release.

I think it is important for users to have the regular releases, and on
time. Every time a release gets delayed, packagers will need to adjust
their planning too.

It is unfortunate that the 3.12.0 release did not happen on the 10th of
August, that would have been ideal. This is probably something that can
be tried to schedule better for 3.13.0.
