There is not one in place right now.  In about a month, I will be starting
up my new job, which I hope will allow me to devote more time and effort to
this project.  There are a number of features I have in mind to get added
and there are many pull requests that needs evaluating.

Even if you are not a developer, members of this community can still help
us out by trying out pull requests and letting us know if it works for them.

Cheers!

I would be interested in accelerating the schedule.  Since this is a
bug-fix release and not a major release, we can presume the tree is pretty
stable.  How about we aim for an release candidate rc1 the week after next?
 Are there any issues or pull requests that should hold the release?  If
so, let's tag them with release-critical.

After we get the bugfix out I'd like to gear up for a major python3 release.

The QT4 event handling bugs needs a qt expert on them. I tried looking into
them and there is no obvious reason to me why they aren't working.

I would be amendable to a bug-fix release soon to hold everybody over for
the next major release.

Are you referring to  771, 707, and 525?  771 would appear to be the 
most urgent.

Agreed.

711 and 707.  Didn't even notice 525, but it is probably related to 707.
 If true, then 707 and 525 are likely focus issues (maybe window-manager
dependent?).  711 definitely seem to be release blocking.

Hi Pierre, we are still having trouble with the close event in mpl figure
windows not being emitted.  I see you posted on this subject in 2009 and
did some monkey patching to work around the problem for spyder

http://old.nabble.com/Qt4-backend%3A-critical-bug-with-PyQt4-v4.6%2B-td26205716.html

This was a while ago so I don't know if your suggestions are still
appropriate for recent pyqt and mpl.  Would you have a minute to take a
look at this mpl issue

https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/711

and advise us on a fix?

Thanks,
JDH
