You probably announced this > in another thread, one I haven't read. No, it's not been announced, and that's because it's not dead yet. We haven't yet decided whether to make another 22 release or not. If we want to make one, I think right about now is a good time for it, tho. I see there have been several important changes mad eto the Carbon port on the 22 branch, but otherwise there have been fairly few changes. Other than the Carbon changes, what would be the main reasons for a 22.3 release? Stefan
