Hello folks,

here goes 3.4.2.alpha0. It does not contain all the fixes I wanted,
but I merged two large (200kb+) patches (#5610 and #5848) that touched
a lot of files and that were in danger of bitrotting. Since I
considered it pointless to force people to rebase potentially twice I
pulled them both into alpha0.

The source, upgrade bits and a sage.math-only binary should be
available in

    http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.4.2/

>From here on the plan is to merge other reviewed patches (in case you
are bored, there are about 80 patches to review in trac), fix some
more issues and then get out rc0 on Sunday to have 3.4.2.final very
early next week. Coverage right now is at 69% and there is a doctest
patch for padics that brings that directory to 100% and gives us 2.1%
globally, so I definitely want that one merged. Another thing to
review and push hard are the pynac tickets and the not yet in trac
patch for the symbolics switch. Mike Hansen mentioned he could post
something today, so hopefully it will get reviewed until Sunday and
merged to give the code a good beating during 3.4.2.

If you have any patches in trac please make sure to check if they
apply to alpha0 since they will get bounced back if they fail to
merge.

Cheers,

Michael
