My opinion is that we create a (short-lived) branch for the release, and continue development (ignoring the release) on master. If CyFunction solves no problems that blocks a release, I am -1 on merging it into the release branch. But we shouldn't keep things in pull requests just because we're

Hi, I wonder what we should do with Vitja's CyFunction branch. He mentioned issues with it in the past (I remember that there was one specific changeset that he considered questionable), and it seems that we found several ways to extend the function support beyond that, which may have an impa
