If no immediate problems are found with that tarball, I think we can make that the official release. There are some discussions about bug fixes going on just now. I don't recall whether all of them have been resolved yet. Please verify that they have been, before you make that candidate tarball. Meanwhile, there is another issue. The candidate tarball must not have "22.1" as the version number! It has to be labeled as a pretest, not as a release. If all goes well, _the same source files_ can be the release. But it can't be the same tarball!
