I guess that would be today (I have some changes that I've been testing,
for xterm, but was unsure whether new commits would be useful).

These xtest regressions are in XDrawString*() ??

I think I know what this is. The patch I committed to fbgc.c, which I'm
looking at now.

Late today.  Possibly very late.

(I have some changes that I've been testing,
for xterm, but was unsure whether new commits would be useful).

If they fix bugs people are reporting, then yes.  I've been seeing a
triple-click selection get extended from time to time for a while, but
it's something that happens infrequently and I haven't been able to find
a way to reproduce it reliably.  This might be what you've found with
Bugzilla #981?

Thanks Alan.  I'll commit that and generate a new tarball.

4.4 release status

2003-12-17 Thread David Dawes
I've been catching up on the 4.4 RC1 test/bug reports after being out
of action for the last few days.  Judging from the reports coming in
both here and in bugzilla, there's a good amount of testing happening,
which is great.  Some serious bugs and regressions are being found and
fixed.  I have what look like some xtest regressions that I haven't had
the time to follow up yet too.

On the other side of this, the number of pending reports is growing
rather than shrinking.  I think that needs to turn around before we
close out the release.

So, I'm planning to cut a second release candidate tomorrow, take a
Christmas break, and then try to wrap the release up late December/early
January.
