I still wonder... Am I or am I not supposed to backport the features to the 3.4 branch? I would personally like to avoid that (since I then need to set up two compilation environments), but if we have a userbase that "demands" new feature in the 3.4 branch; it's worth the extra effort... I could perhaps ask in a different way... Does anyone use the 3.4 branch? Trond
