We could especially use reports for Windows and OS X systems. Unless there are reports of problems in the next couple of days, this will become the 3.4.2 release. jwe
Note that the revision still says 3.4.1.John, I don't know if this is of any interest but I built a little mercurial extension that performs some simple release management. It is pretty trivial, but I have found it useful for some of my own stuff. Basically, you just tag a release (or release candidate) and when you type
> hg release it displays the most recent release on the standard out: 3.4.1rc1If there have been changes since the release it shows the release plus the tip revision:
> hg release 3.4.1 rc1[756ad555]If there is any interest at all, I can share it - and then fix all the bugs you find.
