Hi Viktor!

A new release would be nice.
I have to admit I always forget to make additions to the changelog, but it
should be relatively easy to list the SourceForge tickets that have been
closed since the last release.
Also, it would be nice if my fix for the "TLS exhausted" crash on SBCL
could be included. I'm quite certain that my solution (recycling symbols
from deleted rules) is safe. I wrote an email to the list about this a few
days ago. Maybe I'll just commit it within the next few days if there are
no concerns.
Thanks for your work.

Best regards
David
