It's about a day worth of work.

- Back-porting remaining relevant patches from Squid-2.HEAD
- Write release notes
- Prepare the release
- Final review of the changes since STABLE6
- Sign the release
- Update web & ftp areas with new release info
- Write announcement

The current 2.7 tree should be fine for production. It's very unlikely
some badness has sneaked in there since STABLE6.

Or did you mean 2.HEAD? Should also work fine in theory, but has not
seen much testing and some of the changes is quite intrusive.
