IMHO, responsability for this is shared between Release Manager and QA
manager. I think a review of high priority bugs (178 now) before release
by the two managers, possibly helped by other devs as Nyall has pointed
out, would be a good approach.
A very important point, thanks for raising it.
All the best.
