The code seems to be converging to a good state, and the manual checking is about 90% complete. So I think we should be able to branch before the end of May. I plan to roll a new pretest on April 30. I think, and Stefan has agreed, that we'll introduce a regressions-only policy once this new pretest is out: no fixes to bugs that already existed in Emacs 22. I'll send another reminder email as we get closer to that pretest.
