The tentative sketches of what we want to have in version 23.x call for merging the unicode-2 branch, multi-tty and minor pending changes. Copyright situation, manual status and proof reading and major missing functionality will be still reasonably fresh from the impending 22.x release (with the possible exception of GPL 3 worries, but I don't see them posing a major showstopper). In the mean time, no particular problems are addressed by snapping, sarcasm and bitterness. -- David Kastrup
