Hi,

There's many commits in master, especially wrt POSIX 2024 conformance. Would it be possible for a new release to be made? If not, would it be possible to have your blessing to ship a snapshot of master in Gentoo? (It's completely fine if the answer is no, I just figured I'd ask -- Debian experimental seems to be doing that).

cheers,
sam

I hope to make a release by the end of the year. Hopefully the worst bugs from the locale support have been ironed out.

Cheers,
