I'd like to suggest doing 2 press releases:

1. Wide press release showing the coverity results, and saying that 8.1
has just entered beta. Soon.

2. Release notice later in the year.

My experience last year was that the press are interested more in News
or an angle (i.e. #1) and not very interested in software releases (i.e.
#2). I think we *have* to do #2, however...
