Indeed.

For the SONAME error, I should just have been more carefully reading the
check-list (doc/release.org).  It’s really PEBKAC here, so the only good
fix would be to change the guy.  ;-)

Regarding bug fixing, there’s probably room for improvement.  For
instance, when a bug is filed, we could assign a target release for the
fix, and stick to it.  Perhaps we could have a more formal freeze window
also, during which we would only fix new bugs and be extremely
conservative about anything else.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
