Shortly after Firefox 3.5's release we are going to be wanting an official 1.9.1 release build of XULRunner. I understand that this will require some work to set up so I figure it is worth starting to track it now. If we can get done early enough then doing a release of XULRunner 1.9.1b4 would be nice to gain some wider testing.

1.9.1 and 1.9.2 release builds are happening so I'm calling this fixed. Filed bug 627181 for XULRunner 2.0

We create XULRuner builds for 3.5 and 3.6 when the release automation runs for the Firefox release. They go into directories like
 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/nightly/1.9.2.13-candidates/
We can enable them for 2.0 betas too.

We then manually create GPG signatures, rearrange the files, and publish them to
 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/

The manual part sometimes lags a bit after the Firefox release. I've filed a RelEng bug to automate that - bug 627182.
