Our next release will be 3.5.0 and our convention is that odd numbered releases are focused on bug fixing.
That raises the question: which bugs should we fix? We have 468 unresolved tickets which is enough that properly prioritizing and labeling them is hard simply due to volume. (Here is the list of them: https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/DAFFODIL) So I'd like to ask our dev/user communities to up-vote and/or comment on our JIRA tickets from their perspective. Alas.... logistics.... Apache JIRA requires accounts now (due to the darned spammers). So.... If you do not have an Apache JIRA account you won't be able to up-vote or comment on tickets. But... I can create one for you allowing for you to upvote/comment tickets. Just send me, (personally - do not hit reply or reply all), your preferred userid, full name, and email. Note: If you have a github account then that userid is a good choice. Note that bugs can include performance problems as well as things not working as they should. Some kinds of missing features can even be considered to be "bugs" even if our JIRA classifies them as improvements or new features.
