To be upfront and direct, I'm not a huge fan of having a scheduled release. I think we should release 4.6.3 when it has enough fixes to justify a new release or if a major usability issue is fixed, not just because a date on the calendar is approaching. On the other hand, it can help web hosts to know when a maintenance release is coming, although it seems many don't generally upgrade unless there's a security problem.
I don't care much, but I think monthly release cycle is quite good for pushing fixes to users. Once we fix a bug, most users do not upgrade to git, they rather wait for released version and this way we ensure they get fix within a month.
According to our milestone, 4.6.3 is due for release in just over a week. I don't think we're ready for 4.6.3 because there haven't been a lot of fixes in 4.6.3. I'd rather put it off, perhaps for a month, depending how things go, basically until there are more fixes justifying a release.
I'd like to see it released on the schedule as I thing following two issues are quite annoying:
* https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/issues/12279 - makes it impossible to use phpMyAdmin in case there is mismatch between MySQL libraries used at runtime compared to the ones used for compilation. This mostly affects users using MariaDB on older distributions.
* https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/issues/12249 - affects anybody running phpMyAdmin on Windows in top level directory.
