Do you really want me to admit publicly that I have logs of IRC 
channels I'm logged into including all the work ones where 
colleagues make all sorts of jokes they wouldn't want circulated 
more widely?  I'm not sure I want to admit to that...

Yes, hopefully the freeze will have helped with that.

I have changed the VERSION file to be 2.4.0 which I think we 
should probably change in the tcw22 steps at the point where we 
freeze the repository.  I have also added a 
ReleaseNotes/readme-2.4.0.xml and would ask Council to add 
<item>s to this list of updates that they think have been 
significant.  (Or email them to me and I'll do it.) If we can do 
that over the next week that would be good!
