Me too ;-) May I suggest to at least slowdown (preview|bugfix) releases
enough that there is some more time to find, report and fix bugs?

I did not find any commit of you in
svn+ssh://svn.gnome.org/svn/dia/branches/dia-0-96
(naming convention following e.g. gtk+ and gimp pratice, also used for
dia-0-95)

but there was one in
svn+ssh://svn.gnome.org/svn/dia/branches/dia_0_96

Should we merge that in dia-0-96 or do we really want to introduce a
different naming convention?

Thanks,
        Hans
