        !             7: branch in shape to cut a new release, which will be the first of the
        !             8: 3.2.x series.  These changes include fixes for a number of
        !             9: long-standing bugs (such as some of the statistics computation, and
        !            10: fixes for --file), as well as new features (for example optional
        !            11: authentication and a configurable client connection timeout) and
        !            12: general improvements (better timing for the --bitrate/--bandwidth
        !            13: options).
        !            14: 
        !            15: We'd like to encourage users in the community who are comfortable
        !            16: compiling iperf3 from GitHub sources, to checkout / clone the iperf3
        !            17: master branch from GitHub and try it out in their environments.  (No
        !            18: tarballs will be produced until the official 3.2 release, although I'd
        !            19: say we're basically in "release candidate" stage now.)
        !            20: 
        !            21: There is a mostly-final set of release notes in the RELEASE_NOTES file
        !            22: on master, so you can see what's new, changed, fixed, and so on.
        !            23: 
        !            24: Assuming no serious problems, we're aiming for an official release in

        !            30: After a lot of issue triage, we're down to 38 issues in the issue
        !            31: tracker (plus three outstanding pull requests).  As mentioned in an
        !            32: earlier update, a lot of the issues we closed were user questions, not
        !            33: bug reports or enhancement requests.  We'd like to direct user
        !            34: questions to either the mailing lists or to look on various question
        !            35: sites such as Stack Overflow.  For bug reports (where you think iperf3
        !            36: is doing something wrong) and enhancement requests (what can it do
        !            37: better), please file an issue.
        !            38: 
        !            39: Thanks for your interest and support of iperf3,
