I hope I won't sound too aggressive here...

Did you even bother to look at 3.7a5? Pretty much every found bug and code-shift problem found in a4 has been corrected and a lot of stuff has been added (introducing new bugs, of course). All of this required some effort, thinking and reorganizing of the code.

How about making an effort yourself (for example looking at the 3.7a5
changelog, verifying the changes made and testing the new stuff) instead of pissing on other people's work?


Again, sorry for the outburst.

Honestly, I think 3.7 should just be quitely dropped and we should
restart from 3.6, apply all the bugfix patches and possibly some of
well-tested and known-to-be-OK improvements and call this release 3.8.

Then, with the new 3.8 as baseline, people can re-submit whatever
patches didn't make it into 3.8.

That's a point, except we already have a 3.7 alpha (that needs to be
updated and fixed), which feels as much like a bug introduction
release as it would be a bug fix release.  There are a lot of changes
between 3.6 and 3.7, and I'm not sure I've caught up on what they all
really do...

Cheers,
Richard
