I think we need a 2.3.2 release fairly soon. There are a number of bugs, 
some of which were new in 2.3.1 which we need to correct. Could we aim 
for the beginning of January? There needs to be a tag copy of 2.3.1 and 
then I guess we can use the 2-3-x branch for these corrections, some of 
which are already in trunk. Will you make the tag and do the merging?

We can then use the trunk to try the new valence model and your success 
with it is encouraging. I could upload it, unless you want to, when you 
have done the merging. I realize that it is not essential to wait, but 
it avoids possible complications. Since the trunk would then be aimed at 
2.4.0 I guess it then would be appropriate to add mods which destroy the 
binary compatibility? (In the fingerprint code particularly, when I get 
round to it.)
