"Soon" yes. Those last few bugs proved to be extremely painful and slow
to get fixed.

As of today we have one major bug unfixed, and some testing needed for
checking the stability of the recent huge fixes. I'm just waiting on the
backports of some small regressions already found before the next v4
beta package.

I am *hoping* not to have to release any more 3.5 packages. But that of
course depends on what the timeline this final bug turns into.
