no objection, just a note: There's this branch in branches/Padre-slave-driver that has the memory consumption/threading optimizations that Adam blogged about. It works well on my computer (linux), but it's a pretty devious and significant change. To the best of my knowledge, it's also only been tested by me despite my multiple suggestions on IRC that others should give it a shot. Now, I guess our development model or our developers mindset is such that it won't get a lot of testing time *unless* I just dump it into the trunk and let Murphy figure it out. I'm certain there'll be breakage. This suggests two possible routes: a) Make a release now, then merge the branch into trunk. Buys us time to fix things. b) Merge the branch into trunk and delay the release until we're certain we've fixed the most serious issues. Could make Padre 0.56 an even more significant release (cf. Adam's blog entry). I'd love to have this in the upcoming (hyped) 0.56 release. But it's quite risky and it might be better to stick with a). What do you guys think?
