Alex's patches are in, and I saw him call for 0.2.6 on irc, but there have been a few regressions discovered. Do we need to have a bughunt / regression test / code freeze? The last couple of releases (that I have been around for) we have created the branch, then applied bugfixes against it, then backported to HEAD. Is this the way we should do this? Should we "freeze" HEAD and then branch?
I found that vncviewer no longer starts for me, and Alex said that Abiword doesn't work for him. The wallpaper was reported to have regressed also. I personally will test the wallpaper and all the other things I care about tonight. Maybe we should have others check over things too..
Just curious, WD

Since we're way behind schedule for the release anyway, I'd prefer it if we can postpone the branch until Wednesday. By then, I should have merged the latest Wine release. If not, branch anyway Wednesday. Then a week feature freeze, until 23 March. A few days code freeze and release in the weekend 26/27 March. How does that sound to everyone?

AbiWord 2.0.5 still works, but the latest version (2.2.something) doesn't.

I have not that big opinion to that but I'd say: At some point we have to. So let's make some kind of cut.
thus I declare to make a branch at Wednesday or Thursday as Ge thought. Any interrupts?

This would be nice and I thing backports are the right thing.
