Re: cons 2.3.1 release?

[Timothee Besset]

I know, I periodically post here trying to get things moving. The CVS
version works fine, except for the build package problem I reported, and
the lack of a working parallel cons. A final release of 2.3.1 as the
stable version, and a clear statement that cons developement is abandonned
would be a good thing.

Last time I checked, scons was far behind in terms of features. I'm using
cons in a production environement, and I need some of it's advanced
features. It's not the right time to switch to scons yet.
