I wouldn't recommend it. People have of course had some time already to test the branch, but I doubt many people did. Now that it is in trunk anyone working on Inkscape will be using it and it's not exactly unrealistic to assume that at least one or two issues will come up.
This branch merge is a very big deal!
Yes it is! And I'm very, very glad that it has finally happened, but doing a quick release after just having merged it might not be the best thing to do. I do agree that we probably don't want to wait too long, but I'd at least give it a month or two.
I completely agree with you. If we move in that direction, then we'll be ready quite soon. I wouldn't necessarily advocate having a new about screen and trying to create a huge media circus around such a release, I'm just keen to get this into the hands of distros sooner rather than later. Joel

Except there is some kind of problem and revisions after the Cairo merge (10326) aren't there.
