That freeze date is at least a month away because I am currently bogged down in a series of substantial updates to the documentation; there are several more substantial changes on my agenda for this release cycle after that documentation effort is completed; and Arjen is currently working on another substantial change which is to adapt our new Fortran binding and examples so they work with the NAG Fortran compiler. (That compiler is noted for being persnickety about standards compliance so once we can build our new Fortran binding and examples with that compiler, there is a much-improved chance that we will be compatible with additional Fortran compilers beyond the NAG compiler and our current tested list of the ifort and gfortran compilers.)
In sum, there continues to be a window of opportunity for PLplot developers (in addition to Arjen and me) to mature their favorite topic branches to the point where they can be pushed to the SF repository master branch and can be made part of the forthcoming release.
