We're now in feature freeze, and already past half-way towards achieving hard freeze. We've named our release wardens and I'm already hearing some discussions regarding sorting through packaging issues. We've got some work to do to get through the must-fix bugs, but given that we've had a short time since 0.42.2, I think even this will go smoothly.
The number to check out this time is the number of feature requests. We dropped the total from 471 a couple months ago to under 450 now, or from a ratio of 62% to under 50%. Quite a jump!
Where the project needs help right now is in closing bugs. We have our bug tracker quite well under control, but there are 258 open bugs, and it would be wonderful if we could cut that down significantly before the 0.43 release. If you can code, please check out if you can help close one or two, and help us really drive this number down. :-)
