Hello.

Quoting from the previous thread about this subject:
> As far as I am concerned, 3.1 could be released anytime now.
[Luc Maisonobe, September 14, 2012]

Plenty of needed work has been done since then. Most of it could have been
done _after_ releasing 3.1!
Most of the current contributors agree that releases should happen more
often; yet they don't.
I would like that a set of objective criteria be written down that would
define when a new release is deemed adequate. [I had suggested some.]
This discussion should be held in another thread since (as the above quote
summarizes), it was agreed that the 3.1 release was due.

At this point, I propose to start the release process using the "old" (about
to be deprecated) procedure.
Indeed, I surely do not want the release to be further delayed because of
"newbie" mistakes on using the new procedure (CMS for the site, etc.).
Let's "divide and conquer": We release 3.1 now and allow users to benefit
from the many new features and bug fixes. While they test the new release,
we begin to prepare 3.2 with the new procedure, starting with the site.

OK?


Best regards,
Gilles
