Re: [Gramps-devel] request for a 3.2.6 release and 3.3.0-0beta01

[jerome <rom...@ya...>]

Note, I added the 'PATCH' tag/markup on some bug-reports with a possible improvement (attached .diff, .patch).

We could find them by using the filter on bug-tracker.
So, maybe some of them could be added on the next roadmap (or added before beta?).
