We have uploaded the pretest for the next minor, bug-fix release of Texinfo, the GNU documentation format.
https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-7.0.2.90.tar.xz As a bug-fix release, changes since version 7.0.2 are minimal so to reduce the likelihood of inadvertent breakages. Here are a list of the changes: * texi2any . fix performance regression when Perl binary extension (XS) modules are not being used (e.g. with TEXINFO_XS=omit) * info . further fix of recoding of UTF-8 files to ASCII to avoid text disappearing from nodes . avoid possible freeze at start of a file with `-v nodeline=pointers' This pretest is made to allow further testing before an official release and to hopefully discover any problems before use by a larger audience. Please report any issues to <bug-texinfo@gnu.org>. It is likely that this will be released as Texinfo 7.0.3 in a few days' time if there are no further issues.
