The last release was in April and there have been quite a few changes
since which are worth another release.
Thus, the tree [1] is now closed for new features as of today. This
means only bug fixes and small, non-intrusive fixes/cleanups will now be
considered for inclusion in v0.6.4. The final release is planned in two
weeks time. Afterwards the tree is open again for new features and more
experimental changes.
