The last maintenance release 1.6.0.4 was released a few days ago. There are a few fixes already on 'maint', and also a handful more fixes cooking in 'next', for 1.6.0.5. I'd like to start closing the cycle for 1.6.1 by declaring -rc0 by the end of this week. In early next month, hopefully -rc1 can contain everything we have in 'next' tonight, plus a handful more topics that are currently parked in 'pu'. * The 'maint' branch has these fixes since the last announcement.
