Right now, I'm aiming at 1.11.2, not 1.12. The minimum for the former is *no* additional features. The important thing is no regressions, not really any new feature. I might be talked into reviewing ACLOCAL_PATH support for that, and maybe a couple of the other issues that fix bugs are safe enough (esp. we could think about deprecating ansi2knr), but other than that I'd be rather cautious. I want 1.11.2 to be pluggable for everyone that uses 1.11.1, without *any* thinking (i.e., distros should be able to just drop it in). Your list aims for 1.12. We definitely should try to have that appear within a reasonable time frame, too, if only because it's been so long in the making already. However, just only fixing existing regressions and polishing stuff and testing will take a few weekends, even without what you've listed. For 1.11.2, one thing I need to do is revert v1.11-328-ge87c030 or find another solution. For 1.12, we need to split the testsuite or implement support for multiple testsuites in one directory. Otherwise MinGW/MSYS won't work. Thanks, Ralf
