Re: 4.1 status?

What is the status of the 4.1 branch? Any word on 4.1.2?

My current plan is to do a 4.1.2 along with 4.2.0. My concern has been that with 4.2.0 moving slowly, trying to organize another release might just distract the developer community.


However, I realize that's a pretty wide gap between 4.1.1 and 4.1.2. We could also do 4.1.2 sooner, and then do 4.1.3 along with 4.2.0. (I want to do a 4.1.x release along with 4.2.0 so as to avoid the problems we have in past with quality "going backwards" between releases from different branches.)

I'm sure that, a priori, people would prefer a 4.1.2 release, but it does take effort. On the other hand, many 4.1 bugs are also in 4.2.

Any thoughts?
