I know, but many times it's either: 1) I need to finish some features I started to get them in release-ready status, even for devel releases that are supposed to be snapshots 2) Nothing has been done on the module since last devel release. This sounds bad, but happens with many modules that are mostly in maintenance mode. Pango is a great example of this. There are months that Pango hacking takes a large part of my time, and there are other months when other projects are (like right now). Given that some changes need to be done early in the release cycle, I can push myself to get something done for each devel release. > If you need a reminder to get development done before releases, there's > the ical file.
