I'd like to release version 2.5.4 of liblouis early next year, let's say
Friday 2014-1-17.
We are due a release on the 1st March, 2014, just before the spacing
param is removed.

Does this mean we will have two releases in quick succession?
I had totally forgotten about that. This is not backwards compatible
isn't it?
I would prefer if we could delay until the 1st, there are some major
improvements for the Danish tables that Bue and I are keen to see
made available in a release, but it will most likely not be doable by 17th Jan.
1 March is more doable for us.
My real motivation to do a release was to be able to use the google code
downloads one more time before they close. Now I realize that the cut of
date is January 14th, i.e. we would have to do a release on that date
(in 5 days).
thoughts?
I'm unsure. I think we have enough material to do a solid release. If I
understand correctly the spacing parameter business is not backwards
compatible, so that would warrant a bit more warning. Maybe this would
imply another release in a couple of months?
If we wait then we will have to have a solution for the downloads. I
think we agreed to put them on liblouis.org, but I personally don't have
access there so I couldn't do an upload. I don't feel very comfortable
about this as I cannot do a release if I can't upload it.
Thanks
Christian
