Proposed stable release of GNU findutils: opinions?

[James Youngman]

Folks,

I'm considering making a stable release (i.e. 4.6.0) of GNU findutils
in the next few days, essentially identical to the recent 4.5.15
release, with a version number change.

What are your thoughts on this?   Clearly there are a number of open
bug reports on the bug tracker.  However, many bug-fixes have occurred
across the 4.5.x series, and so perhaps the benefit of the bug fixes
in the proposed 4.6.0 release outweighs the downside of making a
stable release with known bugs.

What do you think?   If you don't think we should make a stable
release without addressing one of the bugs in the bug tracker, would
you like to volunteer to work on the issue you identified?

Thanks,
James.
