On the other hand, I can understand what Freddie Chopin's point --
Windows users need a binary release and now many of the OpenOCD

version is important here.
Maybe it is less important for Linux OpenOCD users since they
can probably build from source by themselves. On the other hand,
a release will still help -- so that distros can take it and package it.
Exactly what I had in mind!
Figure out what outstanding problems there are, work with the
list to get them sorted out, etc.
There are always outstanding problems out there. So there
needs to be a cut off somewhere.
In my opinion (my own tests and current messages on the list) currently
there are no big problems, but with SWD implementation these will most
likely appear soon.
I think a release should be cut at either of these two points
for a project like OpenOCD which is still very active and not
reaching mature state.
1) Enough patches have been accumulated.
1) A certain time has been passed, say 6-months or one-year.
And now both points are satisfied more than enough (;
4\/3!!
