All, I've been searching the mailing list archives and wikis to try to understand why there has been no groff release for years, while during the same time what seems like a lot of useful commits have been done to the source code.
I am sure there are good reasons from the core developers to deviate from the "release early, release often" mantra of open source software, but since I have not been able to find it, I was hoping perhaps someone could kindly take the time to shed some light and a few sentences on the current development status, and what are the main reasons for not pushing some of the useful commits into a new release? One of the key motivations for asking is the need for the various utf-8- related patches in groff that seems to have been sitting in cvs for a while... Thanks in advance for taking a few minutes to shed some light on this!
