I've been waiting for copyright assignment paperwork for some new
features to get through FSF legal and the postal system.

It seems in the last week most if not all of it has arrived and I'm
starting to work on integrating those changes (note the integration of
the jobserver for Windows patch over this past weekend... more to
come...) and looking into bug backlogs and my mailbox.

So I'm actively working on it now.  There are very few people in the
world who have a worse track record than I with predicting release
dates, so I won't.


BTW, I've taken bug-make off of the list.  I would really appreciate it
if we can choose one or the other of help-make or bug-make and not post
to both: a large number of people subscribe to both and it's really
annoying to get lots of duplicate mail.  Thanks!
