I'm assuming cython-devel is a proper subset of cython-users, but just wanted to say hooray and thanks for all the work that wen into this release (both new development and pushing the actual release to completion).
Is there a plan to announce more broadly? (E.g. python-announce, if you haven't already (moderation adds a bit of latency).) I know this was brought up a couple of months ago, but we seem to be falling into a pattern of thinking about doing a bugfix release, then saying a full release is around the corner anyways, and then not actually getting it out for quite a while. I propose we start an actual bugfix branch from which we can cut minor releases at (nearly) any time, and certainly with much less hassle.
