The remaining open bugs targeted for 4.0.0 are 8077 and 8078.
8077 has the votes, ready for Giovanni to commit and close the issue.
8078 is a blocker for 4.0.0 and is pending Henrik getting time to spend
on investigation. So that is more open-ended.
I am ready to build an RC4 as soon as the open issues are cleared, and I
would like to move very quickly from RC4 to full release with minimal
further testing other than the full build and regression testing.
To that end I propose that we only target any new issues for 4.0.0 if
they can be closed very safely and quickly, and if there is reason not
to put them off to a future 4.0.1 release. The goal will be to really be
finished with 4.0.0 after 8078 is finally done.
Of course, that's a goal. We should not ignore anything truly serious
that shows up at the last minute.
Regards,
Sidney
