The to-do list for 2.3 has shrunken and only items which cannot be
finished in the forseeable future and unassigned items are left. This
means it's time to think about releases. Jakub, Roland, and I have
worked hard to get most outstanding issues resolved. I'll go through
the bug database once more tomorrow and will do some more compilations.
Roland is currently looking into the patches for the *bsd port.
Once these things are handled I'll make the first test release. If all
goes as usual (i.e., nobody is really going to test the code out) I plan
to take a shortcut this time. Since people seem not to be interested in
using test releases and without these uses we'll get nowhere, making a
release is the only way out. The code has fortunately already undergone
substantial testing since it is used in the current RH betas so this
isn't that much of a risk. At least not on x86. For other
architectures, except perhaüs PPC, we didn't really get any feedback so
it does not matter.
If you have any reason why we should not proceed like this let me know
right away.
