Dear Docutils developers,

after the next round of "last minute fixes" I propose to freeze the repository
and release the current state as next Docutils version.

Excellent. Thank you.

I suggest either 0.20rc1 before the weekend or 0.20 after the weekend.
Engelbert, could you decide (and tell us) which you prefer and can manage?

[r9369] reverts the addition of `io.OutString` and the "auto_encode"
argument for core.publish_string() and core.publish_from_docstring(). I
hope this can give us a clean start for discussing a consensus on the
desired end state of the "String I/O interface" and the best way to reach
it.


Thanks,

Günter
