depends on which long weekend you are talking about. Mine was last
weekend and I plan to release it some time next week. Just before the
long weekend in Germany :)

It is acceptable for me since manpages are for the testing tools anyway.
The main focus is on the library and not the tools. So that would not
stop me from doing the release.

Isn't it enough to just have autoconf generate Doxyfile from Doxyfile.in
and that just works then?

Sine the USB changes break the API compatibility, -version-info 2:0:0
should be the right thing to do. Or not?
