You're misinformed.  Nothing of the sort is "required to be
announced."

If everything had gone _perfectly_ well with the first release
candidate, a release might have gone out.  In view of there being some
issues found on some platforms leading to a fair number of bug fixes,
the final release won't be a result of RC1.  It might be the result of
RC2, in another couple or three weeks, but that again assumes that it
is ready after testing RC2, which leaves a dose of uncertainty.
