• 3.9 release went well – downloaded over 1000 times.

• 3.9.1 has 14 closed pull requests, which is plenty enough for a patch release. Although we are not in any rush, we could easily release well ahead of the scheduled date of January 31st.

  • Difficulties making SCIDE look attractive on arbitrary native themes, and the possibility of

  • Replacing the default light theme entirely.

  • Making the Documents docklet match the theme for visual consistency.

  • Making the Documents docklet match the theme for visual consistency (much more difficult!).

  • Licensing of themes.

• Debian packaging has mostly hit a wall :(

• Adam’s Guard configuration PR can go into 3.9

• Travis is back in order
