Yes. I'm currently responsible for building the 1.73.0 release and
I am working on finishing it up now.

The 1.73.0 release, as with all dot-zero docbook-xsl releases,
will also be largely untested and not necessarily stable. The
plan will be to get any bugs fixed as quickly as possible after we
get it out, then follow it with a stable 1.73.1 release.
