Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are
only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'.

-for a few days to give time for the dust to settle and then open the new
-development cycle sometime next week.
+This issue describes the state of my tree in preparation for opening the
+post 1.7.10 cycle. The 'next' branch has not been rewound yet, but it
+soon will be. The Stalled topics will be discarded by default.

-in v1.7.9.2
