[Vorbis-dev] can we help with libvorbis release for CVE fixes?

[Ralph Giles]

Hi Ellen,

Thanks for your kind offer to help the release along. We have indeed
been having trouble finding resources for that.

You can certainly help by testing the git master branch with your
software and reporting any issues you find. Otherwise, triaging
outstanding bug reports and patches is always helpful, although that's
not essential for a security-based release.

I'll try to find out what the resolution on the reported CVEs was.

Cheers,
