Unfortunately, I haven't found too much time for lwIP, lately - I've 
been quite busy with other things...

Anyway, since you (Kieran) wrote this mail, 11 new bugs have been 
reported on savannah (plus one possible bug with PPP checksum, which 
David Empson hasn't confirmed, yet). Being like that, should we 
analyse/fix these before 1.4.1 or postpone them to 1.5.0?

I can say that I won't have the time to maintain a 1.4.2 tree, so any 
bug not fixed in 1.4.1 will probably have to wait for 1.5.0 (including 
Ivan's new IPv6 code) - although that is not necessarily a bad thing.

I'll continue to fix bugs in master (i.e. forthcoming 1.5.0), but I'd be 
happy to merge the fixes back to the 1.4.1 branch, given that we seem to 
have decided for an RC2, anyway. While we do need to stop fixing new 
bugs at some point, I'm happy we got so many reports, lately - which 
means people are contributing to lwIP: for me, a good bug report is half 
the way to getting the bug fixed!
