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...
Cheers, Peter
Peter, is libxml2 going into M5? I'm not sure at what time M5 gets locked in stone, but its some time tomorrow I believe. Not sure Stephan will allow you to upgrade it after that since we'll be in feature freeze as I understand it.
