Yes. On April 12 (or thereabout), one of two things will happen: either I release 3.09.2+rc1 as 3.09.2 with only one change (the version string), or I release a 3.09.2+rc2 with some bug fixes. In the first case, it will be totally compatible. In the second case, that's still very likely, but not guaranteed. >If this is the case, this will enable we Debian OCaml Maintainer to >start rebuild packages and libraries for the new version of OCaml >before >its actual release. It would be great! Yes, but be ready to undo that work if there turns out to be a serious bug in +rc1.
