Release and development schedule

The release is planned for late January with a code freeze in mid January. More specific dates to be provided later.

Feature and patch review status

A current proposal discussed on ns-developers list is to use the bug tracker to identify and status items being actively worked. We'll post a URL here at a future date once that proposal has been settled.

Presently, one new feature is in 'last call' state, regarding TCP refactoring:
