 I think it is best to pass over 3.1.3 - although people should still test it
 and report their results - and aim to release 3.1.4 to beta by the end of
 this week.  I'm happy to volunteer as release manager for 3.1.4 as well,
 given that it follows on from the 3.1.3 evaluation process.
 

 I'm okay with scraping 3.1.3 and cutting 3.1.4 -- but what should we
 do with the release name?  Should we get a new name for 3.1.4?
   
Yes - I think it would be more consistent to choose a new name - any 
suggestions?

 I've already added the backport proposal for the setuid fix in the
 STATUS file in the 3.1 branch -- could someone please vote on it?
 I've also voted on Jesse's line width patch, so please check that
 into the branch.

 Daniel, please add a backport proposal for the issue above so that we
 can approve and get that into the branch.

 Could you also please go over my patch for setuid?

   

I agree that the old behavior should be preserved, I am going over this 
today.

How do people feel if I proceed to tag 3.1.4 some time between now and 
Monday morning?  Is anyone else actively working on something they would 
like to include?  Any new bugs?

I've started getting some feedback from OpenCSW users too, but I'll 
defer any more Solaris-related changes to at least 3.1.5 unless they are 
really critical bugs.

 So has anybody else given 3.1.3 a test run?
 
 I have found some minor issues.
 
 It looks like there are new configure options added in regards to
 setuid and setgid:
 
   --enable-debug  turn on debugging output and compile options
   --enable-gexec  turn on gexec support (platform-specific)
   --enable-setuid=USER  turn on setuid support (default setuid=nobody)
   --enable-setgid=GROUP  turn on setgid support (default setgid=daemon)
 
 There are 2 issues:
 
 - extra quotation marks in the text
 - --enable-setuid is OFF by default.  This is the opposite behaviour
 from previous released versions
 
 On top of that, our spec file has not been updated with this new
 configure option and therefore the RPMs I posted do *not* setuid.
 
 I'm not sure if we should consider this as show stopper, but a simple
 fix would simply be to change the default configure option so that it
 reflects the previous behaviour.
 
 Please let me know what you guys think.
 

If this is just a simple fix, then I would vote for scraping 3.1.3, rolling 
3.1.4 with the fix and resetting the test period.  The other option, since this 
isn't a regression, would be to release 3.1.3 as is with the defect noted in 
the release notes.  Then release 3.1.4 next month with the fixes.  I would vote 
for the first option, but I'm OK with the second if that is the way everybody 
else wants to go.

But either solution is fine with me.

Also, it'd be cool to get more feedback from others ;-)
