Jeremy is working on some GnuTLS problems which should be fixed for 4.89; there's not much point deliberately cutting a Release Candidate which isn't really a candidate. So RC2 will be delayed. -Phil -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##

Known regression: Proxy Protocol v2 broken in RC1. Fixed in master, will be cherry-picked into RC2. In unbreaking TLS-on-connect in combination with Proxy Protocol (had never worked) I fixed PPv1 but did not look closely enough at PPv2; I not only didn't fix TLS-on-connect for PPv2 but also introduced a regression which stopped PPv2 from working at all. Folks may be heartened to know that this was caught by our build farm test suite doing CI testing of the master branch. RC2 will be cut either on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. If all goes smoothly, I currently expect to cut 4.89 release on Monday 20th February. If no major issues crop up with RC2, that will give us a week of baking. -Phil signature.asc Description: Digital signature -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##

The `spec.txt` and `filter.txt` in the tarball are empty. I missed that, so I'll chase down why this error didn't abort the release process, and fix the root cause too. Tentatively thinking of an RC2 on Thursday, unless something less cosmetic comes up in the mean-time. -Phil -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
