Posting a tarball extracted from CVS to the list is not what I would
call "doing a release".

How do you expect to "maintain" a project if you don't communicate with
the developers on their perception of the necessary steps to take? You
do an occasional post to this list and then you disappear again for
weeks.

Can't you arrange this with Pavel Roskin? I think he has all the
necessary access credentials to the relevant sites.

Leonard.

P.S. By the way, we did fix a double free that caused a crash on some
systems recently. Please don't forget to update before releasing.

P.P.S. As any form of coordination in the release schedule is obviously
too much to ask I will refrain from asking for a pre release. Let's have
a release. With an official announcement please ;) .
