Mmm. I was thinking also about things like updating the savannah page and so on (do you need to be a 'project admin' for that?) >> I happen to have some spare time, which I could use to work out >> whether there are bugs in the bug tracking system which ought to >> be fixed, fix them, etc, if these are likely to get into a release... > >I think the first step should be to create a 1.3 branch in CVS and then >do the release work on that.

Yeah, I guess a branch is the right thing here. What do we want to put into 1.3, then? Looking in the BTS, I don't think any of the bugs are particularly critical. So my vote would be for 'release 1.3 more or less as the head of CVS is now', and then go for a 1.4 hopefully not too long after that, with some of the other bugs fixed (inc from Maildir, tempfiles, better MIME support, maybe). -- PMM _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
