Re: [Fetchmail-devel] ANNOUNCE: fetchmail 6.4.38 is available (translation updates, updated OpenSSL/wolfSSL version requirements)

[Matthias A. <mat...@gm...>]

Note that the shipped NEWS file in the tarball and this release message 
claim fetchmail-6.4.38 were "not yet released", but I have released iti 
today intentionally, not by accident.

That line should have read instead:

"fetchmail-6.4.38 (released 2024-01-31, 31720 LoC)"

and has been pushed with a GnuPG-signed tag to the Git repos,
https://gitlab.com/fetchmail/fetchmail and 
https://sourceforge.net/p/fetchmail/git/ci/legacy_64/tree/
