I hearby officially announce my attention to release abcl-1.3.2 before ELS 2015.
If people have time to fix outstanding bugs over the weekend, please submit your patches or concerns as soon as you can either to the mailing list on on IRC at [#abcl][].
[#abcl]: http://webchat.freenode.net/?randomnick=1&channels=abcl&prompt=1&...
One can view the more-or-less complete list of [CHANGES][1] in trunk.

There are six (6) [ANSI regressions][2] that occur on JRE 7/8 that don't appear on previous versions of the JRE, namely READ-BYTE.ERROR.5 WRITE-BYTE.ERROR.4 CLEAR-INPUT.ERROR.5 FINISH-OUTPUT.ERROR.3 FORCE-OUTPUT.ERROR.3 CLEAR-OUTPUT.ERROR.3, which have something to do with generic function dispatch that I haven't quite figured out, but will probably not address in this release.

Back in 99 (twentieth century I mean), I did a live release of XEmacs at the Mule conference in Japan. How about you officially hit the RETURN button at ELS 2015, as a lightning talk ? :-)

I will consider this, but I would need a bit more automation to make it a "true" release, as there are too many manual bits (mainly the crypto signatures).
Other considerations: A) this is a maintenance release, so it's not really exciting other than to show ABCL is still being worked upon and B) I had wanted to "spend" my lightning talk on the use of the Bear in production under Windows for over a year at the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine.
See ya in London, Mark
