This is Gentoo. We don't wait for "releases" before getting new
"features". This release appears to be mainly an update to the
installer, the addition of more device drivers to the install CD, and
a (relatively) fresh set of binary packages so users wanting to stay
with stable will not have to update and recompile a bunch of stuff
right off the bat. That is just based on what the devs said they were
going to do, and what a release typically means for Gentoo.
You can check the official project page for current status and goals
of the release:
