If we can distribute that better over the development period that would be great. How about a "halfway tag" on master after ~3 months, maybe=20 accompanied by tarballs, as reference if anyone wants to do machine testing? (The mips-o32 clone3 patch was in very early...) Not as "release" in any way, none of the "release guarantees", but=20 we could at least try to have patchsets / groups of features complete before. > I'm particularly keen to hear if the distributions have any features, > fixes, or enhancements they want to see completed.
