Thanks! I've reopened the trunk for general development. VERSION says our next release is going to be "2.5", but that's just by default. If we have a good reason for calling the next release "3.0" we can do that... (Otherwise I suspect I'll go for 3.0 as the next one after 2.9.) Post-mortem type stuff: There was at least one patch I would have put into 2.4 but I didn't spot it on the list when I was looking around for things to put in before tagging rc4. It would be helpful to me I think if we had a single list of "(potentially) release critical issues". I'm thinking just a bulleted list on the wiki Planning page for the release, which people can add things to and annotate to indicate if there's a patch on list, if the patch is in somebody's tree for a pending pullreq, etc. (Yes, this is arguably a cheesy substitute for our not using a bug tracking system we could tag bugs as rc-worthy in...but I think it should be workable and fairly low-effort.) thanks -- PMM
