Primarily lack of review time, on my part. I just got back from vacation, and now have several hundred emails to plow through (and thanks to Paolo and Ralf for manning things while I was rather unresponsive). But I hope to release 2.65 relatively soon, given that the FSF has finally come up with a license exception that will let us advance to GPLv3+. In all likelihood, your Erlang patches will be included in some form or another, given that you have the expertise in this area of autoconf. -- Eric Blake
