Sounds good if somebody else is interested in starting the release
process of 0.12 and master. As I have said before my ELinks time is very
limited these days and mostly goes into mailing list moderation. I don't
know if it would make sense to start migrating to use Google Code for
hosting the downloads. I have used it for a few projects and it is quite
flexible and easy to use. I think this might be preferable compared to
the current download hosting that is quite complicated. Anyway, I've
created a project at http://elinks.googlecode.com/ and can delete it if
you think it is the wrong way to go.

 I think it is time to release ELinks 0.12pre1 and 0.11.4.  All
 the bugs targeted for 0.12-M1 have been fixed in the elinks-0.12
 branch.

I will start preparing the release of 0.11.4 in the next few days.

 In master AKA 0.13.GIT, the current fix of bug 765 can easily
 cause a crash.  I think that should be fixed before any release
 From that branch.

0.12 and master seem to have already diverged quite a bit:

180 files changed, 4400 insertions(+), 2229 deletions(-)

just for src/. Any thoughts about this? In my opinion, this has always
(at least once the number of committers grew) been ELinks' problem. The
gab between stable/unstable are very big, which makes making new
releases and upgrading very painful.

 I would much rather pay for hosting elsewhere.

By the way, do you have any statistics on the disk and network
usage at elinks.cz?

[elinks-dev] Monthly snapshots

If you do not want to release often, create at least monthly (or quoterly)
snapshots, eg. elinks-0.13-080630.tar.bz2 and save them on the download
site. Mark them as experimental. I think that many users are waiting
for new releases, such snapshots would be helpful for packagers.

I hope that I'm not the only one.
