<br><font size=2><tt>As Sergio said I've kind of taken responsibility for
the 4.2 branch<br>
(along with a bunch of help from Jeff and Joel). Unfortunately I
just<br>
don't have as much time to devote to the project as I'd like.<br>
<br>
I encourage you to use the trac system as there is just too much noise<br>
in the forums to parse through it all. If you post a trac ticket
with<br>
milestone 4.2.5 I WILL look at it and if you attach a patch<br>
(preferably against the latest 4.2 svn code) I WILL review it and<br>
check it in or leave a comment of why it didn't get checked in.<br>
<br>
For my part the lack of feedback from other developers/users has been<br>
somewhat discouraging. For example after the 4.2.4 release a couple<br>
bugs where discovered so I planned a quick 4.2.4.1 release but I<br>
wasn't able to find anyone to test it and I didn't have the time<br>
myself so that's still sitting on the back burner.<br>
<br>
This week I'm partly on vacation and don't have the time to deal with<br>
non critical stuff but I'm setting aside some time early next week to<br>
review any new tickets and get 4.2.5 back on track. I've committed
to<br>
that release, but afterwards unless I see a lot more community support<br>
that will probably be the end of the 4.2 line.<br>
