Since https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/23572 
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Ftrac.sagemath.org%2Fticket%2F23572&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHZGAwNR6wMsSUzuYS10CWqFolkDg>
 is 
already at "positive review", we might as well


   - crash it into an 8.5.rc2, give it a week for final dusting and release 
   this as 8.5 ; in parallel :
   - concentrate our limited workforce 
   on https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/22626 
   and https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/26856 *EXCLUSIVELY*, and, if we manage 
   to get this done *cleanly* release this as 8.8 before the Jan 12 deadline.
   
That way, the work done since 8.4 can be kept in any case, an we preserve 
the possibility of getting  Gap 4.10 and its libraries in Debian (as long 
as the Debian packaging team(s) are able to package them in the limited 
remaining time).

Decision time = date of publication of 8.5. Wich might be Boxing Day (Dec 
26) if we manage to delease 8.5tc2 before midnight today ;-]... Volker ?
