the release of 7.0.0RC1 is currently scheduled for next week, 29th of December.
Concerning the parameter name consolidation, I feel that most work on
this ticket has been done (or will not happen any more for 7.0.0): http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2409
The new parser abbreviation and matching algorithm works nicely in my
opinion. Thanks for that especially to Glynn. It quite facilitates the
transition to the cleaned and improved parameter names.
TODOs for RC1:
* Glynn mentioned that he wants to cleanup something else in the
display architecture.
* A few relevant bugs for RC1 are here: http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/milestone/7.0.0
* other issues?
due to incomplete backports (or statements that they should not be
done), RC1 is slightly postponed.
I see notable differences here:
- lib/vector/Vlib/ascii.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/build.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/line.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/map.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/read_pg.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/remove_areas.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/snap.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/write_nat.c
# not present in relbr7:
- lib/vector/Vlib/intersect2.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/net_analyze.c
- lib/vector/Vlib/net_build.c
Not sure what's experimental and what's a forgotten bugfix backports?

... remain unclear to me.
Additionally, I found the deactivated
grass70/vector/v.in.sites/
.... remove or move to Addons?
Furthermore, many vector/ modules show unbackported differences
--> I cannot judge them.
In display/ are also a series of differences but Martin is working on that.
Then: misc/ + ps/ + raster/ + imagery/ + raster3d/ + scripts/ +
temporal/ I have checked. There are only these relevant differences:
- r.distance (Huidae)
- r.proj bugfixes (Markus Metz)
- r.spread (Vaclav)
- new r3 modules by Anna (perhaps yet experimental)
In general/ there are differences in
- g.rename (Huidae)
- manage/lister (Huidae)
Also the wxGUI differences I'll leave to the experts

I would not backport the new and still experimental features like data
catalog. Generally speaking I would leave wxGUI as it is. After RC1
only bugfixes.

The wiki page is saying r63777 [1] which I backported 4 days ago in hurry
[2] because I was afraid that RC1 will be actually released, so I was not
reporting it. There is also r60922 which is extending interface by -i flag
which enables a new feature, copying values from seed map into the output
map. I could backport it, it would be actually advantageous for me to have
it in 70, but it is adding a new feature and I'm afraid I'm the only one
who tested that.
