Thanks Alex,

I just noticed this email.
Samuel, yes, as co-maintainer you should be responsible for creating the
releases.
There is the Maintainers Corner [1], where you can find all the information
you need to know in order to maintain a module.

In terms of producing a release, bear in mind that you need to produce a
build against the current GNOME modulesets. I don't know how it works these
days, in my case I used to have an up-to-date GNOME jhbuild environment to
test accerciser and produce releases.

As I said in my previous email, feel free to bug me with questions that are
specific to accerciser, I'd be happy to help you on this as much as I can.

Cheers,
Javi

Well, you are a co-maintainer now. The reason of all this thread was to <br=

<br>
Having said so ...<br>
<br>
&gt; (I could check that the current git master does work fine here)<br>
<br>
<br>
First: take into account that I&#39;m not sure if at this point you can add=
 <br>
more functionality to a 3.31.X/3.32.X Accerciser release, due the <br>
freezes. Im more familiar with freezes with libraries. Take a look to <br>
the schedule [1], and check if the freezes allows that.<br>
<br>
Second: there is another reason to do a 3.32 release. Current last <br>
Accerciser release is 3.31.4. That numbering points to a unstable <br>
release. There are some distros that doesn&#39;t include the latest release=
 <br>
of a program/library, but the latest stable release. And that is 3.22, <br>
and as you know (that again, was one of the reasons of the thread), that <b=
