Well the release notes for 7.20.0 were released a long time ago but the Program seems to be as mythical as a Unicorn.

Client Release Update

Vitalii stated that v7.20.x was nearly ready for Alpha testing. The big change is with respect to Windows and the new security libraries. The internal documentation was restructured. Another change is the use/support for C++19. There will also be a new release for OSX. The clients will no longer rely on the certificate bundles and instead use the system certificates.

Richard asked if it is still necessary for David to be in the loop for building and releasing the client. Vitalli "yes and no". Vitalii has some of the credentials.

Richard mentioned that the release notes have/had been prematurely published on the Web server which created confusion in the community.
