Version 4.2 of Modules was released in October last year with new capabilities to automatically handle dependencies between modulefiles [1]. With these new automated mechanisms, corner cases were found which led to a more substantial bugfix work than initially expected. After 4 bugfix releases, with a specific focus on error management (v4.2.3) and on warning/error/informational message report (v4.2.4), I consider the work on this v4.2 branch over. Of course there are still things to improve, but I consider the remaining stuff to work on as new features like the introduction of additional automated mechanisms (*Conflict Unload*, etc). If you encounter strange situation with v4.2.4, feel free to report them here or directly on the bug tracker [2]. On my side, I am happy to re-start the work on v4.3 [3]. I will progressively disclose here the new features that will be part of it. Hope to roll out this release at the beginning of summer. Stay tuned.
