Do you plan just to replace the affected files in the 1.5.3-1 binaries and name it 1.5.4, or build everything from scratch? I assume it is going to be the latter. If that is the case, I think, irrespective of how small the actual code changes are, when the entire distribution is built, there is a chance that build/packaging related regressions may get introduced, and hence my +0 for proceeding with a release without a beta. I understand the risk of this happening is pretty low, but a bigger audience than just the PMC to OK the distributable may alleviate this concern. > Stefan Cheers, Magesh --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
