IMO - None - I feel we need to get a release out asap, warts and all.

Those terminally inconvenienced can use GIT to get fixes from master or develop.

And we should expect to follow with a 1.56.1 bugfix pretty soon (and 1.56.2 as
well?).

We should save new things for 1.57.

PS I'm aware that this means more work for you Marshall - for which many thanks.

But wasn't the whole idea was to release more often?
