I've been looking through Jira for issues already targeting the upcoming
releases and resolved some of them lately.

This one should be easy:
NH-3638 Was discussed in nhusers and occurs randomly in production.
Proposed fix needs to be improved. I would like to see a fix targeting the
3.3.x branch and do a 3.3.3.SP2.

Then there are some issues targeting 3.4.0. Mostly NH-3412 and NH-3432
require a decision - the other seems to be of no particular importance to
3.4.0.
https://nhibernate.jira.com/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20NH%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%203.4.0.GA%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20ORDER%20BY%20due%20ASC%2C%20priority%20DESC%2C%20created%20ASC

For 4.0 there is just https://nhibernate.jira.com/browse/NH-3594 for which
a pull request has been provided. It caused additional test failures
however so I had to revert it. So the fix needs to be improved, but this
could easily be a 4.0.1 item instead.


I will do a release candidate for 4.0 this afternoon (CET), with or without
any of the above.
