3.7 is my main system now.
I've been running 3.6.6 & current master side by side virtually all the time and just added 3.7 to it.
Nevertheless I'm trying to keep the master branch useable.

I stumbled upon this recently but didn't have the moment to clarify if that's on my side or not.
Apparently it's not. ;)

That's what I'm doing.
I got three separate environments … while I use 3.6.6 less and less the gig tomorrow I'll play on 3.7
Development of my stuff has been happening on current master for like a year or more now and continues on 3.7 for the time being.
