I do not have a strong preference. If nobody does, you should release
without waiting if you think there are already important features/fixes
that folks running 3.1 would benefit from.

I may be able to work on this, but I will not know for sure for another
week or so.

IMO, if current 3.1 state is noticeably better than 3.1.0.0, then it is
OK to release 3.1.0.1 provided you have the time to do the release.
Unpolished features or isolated bugs are expected in these releases.
