Hi Team,

So, it is time to start our usual release cycle.

I think this time we need to adapt our testing procedures a bit, and
testing only the following engines which had significant changes since
1.1.0:

  * AGI (LSL1, SQ1, SQ2, BC, GR, KQ4 and MH1 should be enough)
  * Drascula
  * Gob (only Fascination)
  * Groovie (M7G Mac only)
  * Kyra (Kyra1 towns only)
  * Lure
  * Parallaction (Nippon Safes)
  * SCUMM (only MM NES, Loom PCE, FT, MM C64)
  * Teenagent

Feel free to add any games, but following engines have no significant commits:
  AGOS, CinE (couple of minor bugfixes), Cruise, Draci (few minor
bugfixes), MADE, Queen (1 bugfix), SAGA (few  but local bugfixes), Sky
(1 minor bugfix), Sword1, Sword2, Tinsel (1 bugfix), Touche, Tucker

I propose to skip SCI engine testing as a separate even, because the
results are fresh, but disable following games:
  * Hoyle's 3
  * Hoyle's Cards
  * Mixed Up Mother Goose

I.e. those which are marked non completable. Of course, if you guys
manage to fix them before the release, I will not object ;)

The proposed schedule:

  Sept 10th -- announce testing, feature freeze
  Sept 17th -- branch
  Oct 2nd -- feature freeze for backends and translations
  Oct 8th -- tagging, release tarballs are uploaded
  Oct 15th -- release

Starting from this release we also have to maintain translations, and
those have to be in sync before the release.

Now to the bugs:
