Some info can be found here http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/LifeCycle
 
What do you think we should do to make it less confusing?
Add a sentence "This is a maintenance release in the 1.2 series, no new features added."

What is Wireshark?

   Wireshark is the world's most popular network protocol analyzer.
   It is used for troubleshooting, analysis, development, and
   education.

What's New

  Bug Fixes

   The following vulnerability has been fixed. See the security
   advisory for details and a workaround.

     o Wireshark is vulnerable to DLL hijacking as described in
       Microsoft Security Advisory 2269637. This problem is fully
       fixed on Windows XP SP1 and later. It is partially fixed on
       Windows 2000 and XP without service packs. We expect to
       address those platforms in future releases. If you are running
       Wireshark on Windows 2000 or XP we recommend that you only
       open capture files within Wireshark. (Bug 5133)

       Versions affected: All previous Windows versions up to and
       including 1.0.15 and 1.2.10.

       CVE-2010-3133

   The following bugs have been fixed:

     o The RTSP dissector could crash. (Bug 5081)

     o TShark could crash when generating PostScript(r). (Bug 5148)

Getting Wireshark

   Wireshark source code and installation packages are available from
   http://www.wireshark.org/download.html.

  Vendor-supplied Packages

   Most Linux and Unix vendors supply their own Wireshark packages.
   You can usually install or upgrade Wireshark using the package
   management system specific to that platform. A list of third-party
   packages can be found on the download page on the Wireshark web
   site.

File Locations

   Wireshark and TShark look in several different locations for
   preference files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries.
   These locations vary from platform to platform. You can use
   About->Folders to find the default locations on your system.

Known Problems

   Wireshark may appear offscreen on multi-monitor Windows systems.
   (Bug 553)

   Wireshark might make your system disassociate from a wireless
   network on OS X. (Bug 1315)

   Dumpcap might not quit if Wireshark or TShark crashes. (Bug 1419)

   The BER dissector might infinitely loop. (Bug 1516)

   Capture filters aren't applied when capturing from named pipes.
   (Bug 1814)

   Wireshark might freeze when reading from a pipe. (Bug 2082)

   Filtering tshark captures with display filters (-R) no longer
   works. (Bug 2234)

   The 64-bit Windows installer does not ship with the same libraries
   as the 32-bit installer. (Bug 3610)
