FWIW, considering the 15 days time frame we have, I think 8.2.3 family is stable enough (modulo some features that might be cherry picked from master) and would be the obvious safe choice for a quiet end of year. 8.3 release (i.e. built from master) has some interesting features, but may require more work from Org developers during pretest phase. > Stefan was indicating mid-December for the current release.

Nevertheless, with the package system, I would say we already have a good coverage at each release. OTOH, I think that Org versions bundled with Emacs should focus on being rock solid.
