Definitely think it’s time. 

Beyond a couple of nice PRs that haven’t been verified yet (thinking of agent 
forwarding specifically) it’s in good shape and people are wanting an official 
release.  

A co-worker of mine will be looking at the agent forwarding code soon and I 
have ETM and ChaChaPoly 20 code to submit back to the project when time allows. 
Perhaps the next release could come quicker than 2 years. :-)

Cheers,
Will
