Dear all,

I've put on hold the release process just to try and address the
problem with `LaTeX-fill-break-at-separators'.  I don't think it's a
real showstopper, I mean, more people complained about the old
behavior than about the new one, but while we are at it it would be
nice to fix it.

Bye,
Mosè
