Best laid plans and all that...

For 3.2.9 I called for 2 rounds of testing: one for the release
candidate and one for the final tarball. Do folks here feel that is
necessary for 3.2.10 or should I just jump right to the 3.2.10 final?
That tarball would still be subject to a vote on this list before an
official release. Cutting out the first step will save a few days.

It's not so much that it's a bad release, but rather it didn't make
sense to officially release 3.2.9 and then turn around and release
3.2.10 a week later. The leak that will be fixed in 3.2.10 is not new in
3.2.9, only newly discovered.

Basically yes, but if you are already using 3.2.9 there is no harm
specific harm.

At any rate, I'll roll a 3.2.10 tarball for testing by the list tonight.

Just want some verification because I haven't seen anything
official looking

Is 3.2.9 now considered a bad release because of its memory
leaks, and thus will never be released?  Hence 3.2.10 will be
the next hopeful stable release after 3.2.8?
