Yes, that is the most current code.

Right, packagers should ignore those.

Some, not all.  There are some things there of a more experimental
nature that I'm not comfortable making official.

This list or the SF trackers are both fine by me.

Send more time.

I detest so-called security people and the way they handle their
so-called vulnerabilities.  If they cared about anything other than
their own egos, they'd try to engage constructively with the code
authors/maintainers rather than filing CVE entries without asking or
understanding, then sending menacing emails in private.

I can slap a tag on the git repo and call it a day if that makes people
happy.  The process for creating the files comprising earlier releases
is convoluted and probably broken in a million ways by now.
