Hello everyone, 

as of now we're in the hard freeze for the upcoming glibc-2.44 release.

18 July 2026: Hard freeze
    Only critically important or technically straightforward bug fixes
    Release can happen when things are ready 

1 Aug 2026 (or ideally a bit earlier): Release

I just took the liberty to move the last desirable to "postponed" (it can be
backported). 

Overall tests look good, but feel free to still post test results on the 
wiki! Missing entirely are still:

 * m68k
 * mips (all variants)
 * riscv32
 * sparc32
 * ix86 (i.e. 32bit x86)
 * x32
 * and everything hurd

Cheers,
Andreas
