It's rock solid stable.

I am using it for 2 weeks and just minor bugs have been reported (some
color problems on Solaris that have been fixed, some messages missing
from translations).

It will be ready for tomorow to be picked up and included in 6.5.2
distribution.
Just I will need a final confirmation with 10 minutes before someone
downloads the .tar.gz to be sure that it will be the right one.
I'll be (I hope) reachable by e-mail checking my mailbox every 1 minute.

Please, there is available a bug fix list for 6.5.2 ?

Bruce,

in HISTORY for 6.5.2 I see:

This is to re-use space on index pages freed by vacuum(Tom)

isn't this re-use indices after vacuum hack by Vadim ?
(prevent indices to grow infinitely)
Regards,
    Oleg

Thanks.  I have updated the release.sgml and the HISTORY file.

I should have posted the list of changes.  Here it is.  Gee, it is quite
a lot.  Thomas, any way to get the dates from the release.sgml into the
HISTORY file and the html output?

Hey, Bruce -- did the patches for Alpha get in??  If not, I'll need to
mung Ryan K's/Uncle G's patchset against 6.5.1 to work with 6.5.2.

The bad news is that those patches are too large/significant for a minor
release.  They could affect other platforms adversely, so we can't apply
them until 6.6.

Those were Thomas, I believe.

And I can't take credit for that either --- Hiroshi and/or Tatsuo get
the credit, IIRC.  (BTW, did we patch those into 6.5.*, or only 6.6?)

This is *not* in 6.5.*, only 6.6.

Also, most of them were patches for the portability problems in our
function call interface.  I still have hopes of redesigning the fmgr
interface completely before 6.6 --- see my message in the hackers
archives for 6/14/99.  If we get that done then there'll be no need for
the associated patches.  (If we don't, we'd better apply the patches,
since Alpha is not the only platform where there are problems...)

Ah, let's give them both credit.

Sorry.  Shows up in the that tag log, so something must be in there.  I
don't make this stuff up.  :-)

Checking...

Seems addition of text files shows up in all branches, which I guess

I've noticed that cvs log seems a little bogus in its handling of
branches, even though cvs status and cvs update know perfectly well
what belongs to the local branch and what doesn't.  If you say
"cvs log" you get the "current" (tip revision's) log entries, even
if you are in a directory that's been checked out with a sticky
branch tag.  If you say "cvs log -rBRANCH" you get the branch's
log entries, but *only* those applied since the branch was split;
there doesn't seem to be any way to get the full history as seen
in this branch.  And, as above, it's quite confusing about files
that are not in the local branch at all.

Dunno if the cvs folk consider these behaviors bugs or features,
but they're definitely something to be wary of when working in
a branch...
