Re: 8.10 release soon?

Yes, in theory all commits to branch_8x are releasable at the time in the minds of whoever is doing the commit/merge. Nevertheless, we humans are very fallible and a baking period of a few days allows fix-ups and such that ultimately improve quality a little. Of course this can delay features a t
