Request: new zc.buildout release

Could we have a new release of zc.buildout please? 1.5.2 was released nearly 2 years ago, and trunk now contains some interesting bug fixes and new features.
If there is something blocking a 1.6 release, could we see about branching off the 1.5.x line to at least push out the bug fixes?

Other than time, no.

If someone wants to work on either, that's cool. I think 1.6 would be easier.
I'm working on buildout 2:
https://github.com/buildout/buildout
(I've gotten blocked a bit dealing with Python 3.3. I should probably set that aside and get 2a3 out sooner.)
And don't have time for buildout 1.

Ah, I merged a fix I made on trunk into the svn '2' branch, but I now guess that it won't make it to your git repository. Perhaps the '2' branch should be nixed from SVN and replaced with a 'moved to github' sign?
And don't have time for buildout 1.
Can we just release it as is then? Who with access on pypi can do this?

Well, "just" releasing it means testing it on at least windows, mac and ubuntu. Fixing any (non-intermittent) test failures and releasing.
If someone is willing to do all of that (dealing with the hassle of setting up a dev environment with clean Python's), then I'll authorize them to make a release.

Such as? Just curious…
