Re: Release Candidate 1.23.0.rc1

[Dave Kemper]

The *roff concepts rewrite
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2020-10/msg00013.html) and
the ms manual update
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2020-10/msg00165.html) aren't
in this rc.  Are they targeted for this release?

Also, most of the hyphenation data imported from TeX (see
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57594) was last updated in the 2006-2007
time frame.  Is it possible to resynchronize these files for this
release?

These are both extensive changes, so perhaps it's not appropriate to
consider them at this stage.  At the same time, it would be a shame if
they had to wait for the next go-round, especially all the work
Branden has put in to the manuals.  The documentation updates, at
least, have little chance of breaking anything.  The hyphenation data
updates are higher risk but still on the low end.
