This message has prompted me to check the open issues and PRs on GitHub,
and I was surprised to see that there are 103 open (!) issues.  Luckily
none of them appear to have the label "bug", but 32 contain the word
"error".  Skimming through the list, it appears most of these aren't
fatal, but it would be good to fix some of the issues before Emacs 29.1
is released.

Pull requests, on the other hand, seem manageable.  Currently there are
four open, two created today by Stefan Kangas, that are mainly
janitorial and I expect to be merged soon.  The others are small
features that could also be added.
