I have a few more patches that purecopy various things that are not checked in yet (they just need a ChangeLog). I would also like to get rid of the platforms that were obsoleted in etc/NEWS in 23.1. May I do that ASAP? Also there are quite a few bugs in the bug tracker that are tagged with "patch" (and some that are not, but still contain patches). It would be nice if some/most of those could be checked in.
