The source for 2.14.14 was released yesterday, so maybe a 2.14.14 binary will show up in the next few days. I see that 2.14.14 includes some changes right near the "Can't create CORBA main-thread wakeup pipe" error message. With any luck, that might fix bug 510720. But since I can't reproduce that problem, I can't test it either. > >> >> @Nathan, do you think we can release 2.2.7 on the next but one weekend, >> i.e. 30th/31st of August.
