I am still looking at several regressions in git over 2.2.10, so no, a release right now (as opposed to in a couple of weeks, hopefully) would make me rather unhappy. Also, I would prefer a release with this patch series in, at least if the series is in mergeable shape in the near future. > Slightly related, I wonder whether all the progress on Windows > justifies calling the next release 2.4? A higher number could help notify people that more new bugs have crept in, certainly. ;-) The w32 support requires Automake support to be really usable though, and we're still working on that. I had kinda hoped that there could at least an Automake beta that carries that work. OTOH, since I hope to have more larger changes in the future, I'm not sure we really want another major number bump already. Cheers, Ralf
