[Qgis-psc] Release post

[Marco Bernasocchi]

Well I think the main think is I guess that win and ubuntu/debian are
very predictable while mac isnt as well.

I'd be great to change this.

by the way I don't think that "tricking" our mach users with download
3.4 that links to http://qgis.org/downloads/macOS/QGIS-macOS-3.2.3-1.dmg
will work :D

@ richard is that link generated automatically?

cheers

Marco
