I've tagged -rc1 for the upcoming releases of dmapi, xfsprogs, and xfsdump. If
we missed something important now is the time to speak up.

Currently there are two items of which I'm aware:

1) the Polish (and German) translations of xfsdump are not working. I'll start
a separate thread for that issue.

2) Christoph has pointed out this patch series:

Please take a look.

Thanks,
