A plan is better than no plan, so here is my suggestion:
The Pike 7.3 CVS is forked into a new development version, 7.5, next saturday (14/9). At the same time the 7.3 tree is renamed to 7.4. All API/language design changes and the like must be completed before then. Only bug fixes and release related changes will be accepted after the CVS shuffle.
Bugs: 3022 BMP fails on 64bit machines (was this a WONTFIX? If so the test should be rewritten) FreeBSD sometimes fails to build post_modules and to run popen. Some machines has problems running Crypto.sha correctly. MS Windows fails spectaculary with dynamic loading. Turn it off?
Design issues: There must be a semicolon added after implicit lambdas.
What's missing/wrong?
