Actually stable releases aren't coming out very often at the moment. Quite unstable releases with stable version numbers are coming out often. :(

Thanks for the offer, I'll resume work on 2.4.12 then. For most of what I'm doing it doesn't matter too much what version I use.

However if you plan some changes to the way the packaging works (changes to makefiles, directory locations, etc) for 2.4.14 then I'd be interested in a pre-2.4.14 version.
