ASDF status for 3.1.7 release

I think we are ready for a release technically speaking. Tests pass on Mac and Linux. Tests do not uniformly pass on Windows, but all the failing tests I see are due to cygwin pathnames creeping into ASDF. As I have said before, this is a problem with Windows support by ASDF, but *it is not a new problem*. So I will prepare 3.1.7 for release later this week. Tomorrow if I can manage it. Going forward, we really need a Windows partner for ASDF. Cheers, r
