In short: if it's not so urgent, I would delay the release a few months.
That would move pdfTeX to yearly releases. :-(
The problem is: We already _have_ a release everytime Thomas or Olaf make a new beta (or even do a real release). These betas are used by people -- especially the teTeX-betas. Not doing a pdfTeX release every so often will mean that eventually everyone will use some kind of 1.10-beta-200xxxxx, which we surely don't want. And this will happen when the next Linux distribution decides to package the then-current teTeX-beta.
then it's urgent. so feel free to change the banner and make a release to get rid of it. At least we will have a release without tiff and encryption. Regards, Thanh
