Hi,
Milestone 4 is out and Milestone 5 is going to be released next week. But there is a catch: Germany (and a lot of the western world) has holidays either friday or monday (or both in the case of Germany).
So while I moved the release data of Milestone 5 to friday next week, this only means we will still take a couple of packages on april, 6th - but the big majority of packages needs to be submitted by tomorrow.
With 274 diffs in devel projects, that is a lot to submit. So please take care not to miss the deadline.
Note that M5 will bring a new Xorg and a new kernel - and a lot of people have vacation around the holidays, so if you don't make it, there won't be time for extra hand holding.
And for those that keep wondering about milestones: Milestone 5 is the last release before we head into feature freeze. After it I only allow leaf packages to be updated - including a text freeze for all of it.
Milestone 6 is then the first "Beta" - i.e. a milestone after feature freeze, so Milestone 5 will traditionally be the worst, please don't make it even worse.

Greetings, Stephan
I am preparing libxml2 which is 3 revs behind current upstream. I know this will trigger a lot of rebuilds, but there are some significant fixes worthy of including in 11.3, including CVE's. Patching the current 2.7.3 IMO is not realistic, given the number of fixes. However, I will not push it until I have done some regression testing and for the moment, I cannot get the python bits correctly building... Just an FYI of the weather forecast for next week...
