Dear Lisp Implementation Developers and Maintainers,
Today we release ASDF 3.3.6, the sixth bugfix release for the 3.3
release series, and -- it is devoutly to be hoped -- the final one.
We urge implementations that are currently bundling previous versions of
ASDF -- and especially those bundling 3.3.0 through 3.3.5 -- to upgrade
to 3.3.6 at their earliest convenience.
As maintainer, my primary role continues to be coordination and some
limited quality control. The real work for this release has been done
by many contributors and bug-reporters, to whom the Common Lisp
community owes a tremendous vote of thanks. Their names are listed on
the Changelog, appended below.
An extra special thanks is due to my co-maintainer, Eric Timmons, who
has provided many fixes and also has overhauled and much improved our
regression testing.
We *hope* that the next release will be 3.4, introducing new
functionality but which, as the numbering suggests, will be backward
compatible.
Best,
Robert
