Past and planned architectural changes? E.g.
- the moving of gnulib and gdbserver
- some of the changes you've made to the type system to provide
a more C++-like API (replacing some of the macros we have been
using)
- Do people want to give feedback on the new version numbering scheme?
- other large changes that people would like to pre-announce?

Thanks Simon!
