Dear best community of an SDR project known to mankind!

It took me longer than I'd like to admit, but we've finally come to a
release of GNU Radio's maintenance branch 3.7. I'm very thankful for
the contributors we've had this time, especially because the amount of
first-time code contributions is so high! 

* Derek Kozel <derek.ko...@ettus.com>
* Douglas Weber <douglas.we...@student.kit.edu>
* ilovezfs <ilove...@icloud.com>
* Marcus Müller <mar...@hostalia.de>
* Michael Dickens <michael.dick...@ettus.com>
* Sebastian Koslowski <sebastian.koslow...@gmail.com>
* soggysec <sagui.g...@gmail.com>

The main feature, about which I presume most of you care about, is that
there are fixes for the nasty Qtgui / code generation bug we've
introduced with 3.7.12.0; promise we'll avoid such messes in the
future!

As you can imagine, we're working on the "next bigger step" in the
meantime: For GRCon, we'd like to have GNU Radio 3.8 out of the door,
in proper use and with sufficient experiences with the progressive
changes we have in stock for that.

Needless to say, 3.7 isn't dead by any means! You'll find plenty of
issues on github that carry the "backport-3.7" tag, which means that
once we fix them on the current development branch, I'll also make sure
to let them flow into the next 3.7 release.

On the side of making GNU Radio easier to use, I'm very happy to say
that Marc Lichtman has taken it upon him to make the documentation –in
every sense of the word– more accessible. As making sure GNU Radio
works as intended, and that is very closely related to working as
understood, this is an effort very dear to me. You'll probably hear
from him sooner or later!

Talking about understanding things:
I'm extremely certain that there's excellent GNU Radio usage out there
that I simply don't know of. Don't hesitate to announce your projects
on the mailing list, ask GNU Radio-related questions very specific to
what you're doing and generally give feed back on both the small
building blocks as well as the large architectures GNU Radio puts you
up against!

And while you're doing that:

GRCon18's Call For Papers is still open until **June 3**! If you need
any help with the abstract/paper submission process, do not hesitate to
reach out – even if you have something unwieldy to talk about, I think
we can make it work.

Best regards,
Marcus Müller
