Absolutely*. A release by the end of the year will ensure that updates
get into the next stable releases of Debian ("Buster", the freeze
process starts in January) and Ubuntu 19.04. I understand from the
MythTV lists that Fedora (and thus CentOS) would also benefit from
updating their XMLTV packaging (and any missing deps) to include all
current grabbers.

Admin-wise, I need to update the CI config to reflect new OS releases
and test them, and I have a couple of things I'd like to try and get
finished and pushed before release.

This will be the first project release from Github - should be quite
straightforward and a Windows build can be added as a release artefact
to the release page for the new version.

* timescale-wise, are the weekends of Dec 22/23 or Dec 29/30 to cut
the release inconvenient due to the holidays? I'd like to give
everyone enough notice of a release to allow them to get anything
finished and pushed.

Cheers,
Nick
