There is no simple answer to this question.  There are a lot of things
that could change the release date.

For anyone who wants to keep up on the pulse of releases, you can join
the dev mailing list.  Everything about development for the Lucene/Solr
project is discussed in public, there are very few surprises:

Last week, we had someone volunteer to be release manager (RM) for 5.3.

Later, our volunteer said that something came up so it had to be pushed
a little.

The release process is documented in excruciating detail (from the point
of view of the release manager) at this location:

Additional detail regarding the dev mailing list:  This is a very high
traffic list, due to the various automated notification emails that are
sent there.  If you join this list and have any way to filter emails
into folders, you'll probably want to use that capability for these
automated emails.  Here are all the sieve filters that I have set up for
the dev list:
