I would promote the latest version.

So I vote for release 0.46 without windows and shift a 0.46.1 ASAP after.

I disagree. This will defuse the bang. Piecemeal one-platform-only releases will fizzle without attracting much attention. Remember, it's not an availability issue: those who need it can get it any time already. Making a release is primarily a way to make noise and attract new users (and eventually developers). For this, we must run a single concentrated, polished, coordinated campaign. This means no missing platforms and no severe regressions, among other things.
