I have not followed the discussion closely, so I am probably missing
something, but why a new milestone? Unless I'm mistaken, issues that are
"fixed", "closed", and with a "1.35" milestone, are precisely issues
that will be fixed in the release (unless the relevant patches are
reverted). So I don't understand the need for a new milestone.

Best regards,
