My concern is with the duration of the procedure. 2 days between making the release candidate and the official release is very short. 1 week would be better.

Same response as above. I am only concerned about the duration. I think 2 days (the “48 hours” maximum you referred to) is too short. -- Joe _______________________________________________ glob2-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/glob2-devel
