Hi Phil: Go for it! Also if you can pin down the exact system call that creates the long pauses, there is a good chance there is a fix you can implement for that, and I think in that case we would both want to include that fix in the current release. Also, I am in the peculiar position of being a developer pleading with myself in the release manager's role for some more time to get some more of my work matured enough to merge. But as release manager, I don't think letting the freeze date slide another week is supercritical for us so I have granted AWI's request. :-) So this is official notice I am going to bump the freeze date by one more week to December 17th. This is primarily for my own development needs (I still have a lot I would like to get into this release), but this should allow you (and anybody else here) to add as many complicated fixes as you can come up with this week. And in any case, simple bug fixes are certainly allowed after the freeze date right up to the day of the release. ETA of actual release will be roughly one week after I officially declare the freeze has occurred, but as we have seen the ETA of that freeze date is still pretty uncertain because there is still a lot I would like to do, and some of it is a bit open-ended. But if it turns out I can really declare the official freeze on the 17th, then one week later is Christmas Eve so to avoid that, Christmas day and Boxing Day, the likely release date will be a few days after Christmas. Of course, that estimate of release date is still quite uncertain at this moment, but we should know a lot more by the 17th. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
