Per the monthly release schedule, optiq-0.7 is due soon. It will consist of about 40 commits [2].
The present plan is to freeze end-of-business on Friday, and release on Monday.
If there are some patches you are working on that you’d like to get into the release, please speak up now. Let me know when you think you’ll be ready to create a pull request.
