I hereby declare CVS HEAD officially soft-frozen (like a delicious Mövenpick 
ice cream) in preparation for the forthcoming release, which unless anyone 
strenuously objects, I propose we number "1.2.3".

Nothing further is to be committed to HEAD before the release except for:

 -- Translation updates
 -- Priority 9 bug fixes
 -- Priority 8 bug fixes with very local code coverage, such that the fix can 
easily be tested and established not to break anything else

Bugs at priority 9 must be dealt with (either fixed or mitigated sufficiently 
to reduce their priority).

Bugs at priority 8 may be fixed, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over 
them.  If they're hard to fix or the fix might have extensive knock-on 
effects then in most cases I would actively prefer that they not be fixed.

Bugs at priority 7 or below are now officially out of scope for this release.

I suggest that we make the first release candidate at the end of this week, 
and aim to have relatively few before the 1.2.3 release.  We then open a CVS 
branch for fixes on the release, and make further releases from there during 
the next six months while doing major feature work in HEAD.  Alternatively, 
we can keep HEAD for stable releases while doing features in "experiments" or 
elsewhere -- what do you think?  I'd go for the former, except that I have a 
suspicion nobody might test the fixes if they're on a branch.


Chris
