Nope, only a few hours after release of 2.3.0 ;). Today trunk already
includes significant changes for next major release 2.4. Some of them
seems to need more hammering...

But we have the good news that upcoming stable 2.3.1 does not face a

as well.

Yep, it was long needed. If you find anything worth to add to the wiki
or which needs correction, don't hesitate to edit!
