I think it's about time we freeze the features for Emacs-25. There are a few things I hope can still make it into this new release, (such as the xwidget branch (long overdue) and the dynload/modules, for example), so the exact schedule and details are still up for discussion. But I'll leave these decisions to someone else, because I also take this opportunity to step down as head maintainer. It's time for me to move on, and it's time for new blood to take the lead. I'm not about to disappear, but I won't be reading emacs-devel (nor bug-gnu-emacs) at least for a while, so if you need something from me, put me explicitly in the Cc. Thank you all for bearing with me as head maintainer, it's been a great ride, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Stefan
