+1 I'd love to see more regular OGM releases, and some benevolent
maintenance time on 5.2 for a while longer even after 5.3 is
available.

We're all willing to help with the release process, including automate
it more; if someone on the ORM team could volunteer brains for the
organizational work we can make sure it's quick and painless by
delegating the annoying labour to Jenkins.
