Consensus in #bitcoin-dev chat is that it is time to do a 0.8.2 release. A few important bugs have been fixed, and the goal will be to get a 0.8.2 final release before the May 15&#39;th hard fork deadline.<div><br></div><div>
Pieter has already started going through the issues list; help with testing, debugging, and fixing high-priority issues is very welcome. I&#39;ll also be going through the issues list and marking any issues I think need to be fixed with the &#39;0.8.2&#39; milestone.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If translation work needs to be done, now is a great time to do it.<br clear="all"><div><br></div><div>We still don&#39;t have a basic QA checklist for testing of release candidates; I&#39;ll commit to spending a little of the remaining &quot;Bitcoin Testing Project&quot; bitcoins to whoever contributes to creating one.</div>
