Hi Christian, Yes, it's just been a perfect storm of job moves / bad timing / much-needed testing rework. I plan to restart the stable releases starting with 6.0.1 and 6.1.1 shortly after. I'll get the release schedules posted on the release wiki week. Sorry for the delays on this. -Mike > > Am 24.09.21 um 07:27 schrieb Paolo Bonzini: > > Yes, the question is whether it still exists...
