Is there anything preventing you from running the latest version from git? Is there something special about a "release" that you're looking for? (I can think of several reasons why someone might want a release and not the latest master branch, but I'm curious about your specific reasons)

I am not OP, but think of it from a contributor's point of view: you work X hours on a new feature that even gets accepted into the master, but then you know that 99.9% of mosh users will not see it because it's not part of a release. I don't know how I would feel about that.
