Short version: First, Tavis's bug report, #621494, should be addressed before a new release; at the very least, folks using PSP should see if it's replicable; if so, it should be fixed. Second, there's a patch against Page.py (v. 1.25) that adds a new method, handlePostWithoutAction(), that someone might argue should be applied. Longer version: Only two bug reports are worth noting since 0.7 release: 1) #550156, which is Geoff reporting that turning on ExtraPathInfo is broken; I think that Ian has something in CVS which addresses this, though I may be misremembering. 2) #621494, which is Tavis's report about PSP parsing bug, that a space after the opening bracket, <, and before psp:method causes a PSP parse error(?). It's filed against the CVS of 2002.09.01.07.00.00, so I'd think this is one that needs to be addressed. I can't replicate it locally as I'm running default 0.7. As for patches, there are 7 patches since the 0.7 release, near as I can tell: Two of them are installation, portability issues -- one a fix for start and stop scripts, the other makes Webware work nicely with FreeBSD ports. Neither of these seems critical. There's a patch addressing encoding support for XML-RPC, but I can't seem to download it from SF to review it. It was assigned to Geoff, so this may well be taken care of in CVS. There's a pair of patches to add Postgresql support to Middlekit, one of which is against a Python PG library, which I would think can be ignored. The other patch basically adds a class, PostgresObjectStore(SQLObjectStore), to Generate.py. Near as I can tell, again, this could be dropped. Another patch adds LRWP/Xitami support to Webkit; again, IIRC, Ian has checked in something to CVS along these lines recently? The last two patches are fairly negligible: #608957 adds some If-Since-Then support to WebKit, but it seems the common pattern (?) is to use Apache to serve static files. Last, #620519 is against Page.py v. 1.25, adding a handlePostWithoutAction() method, the implementation of which is "pass". I can't imagine any of this is helpful toward making a new release, but there it is.
