It will take a few hours than anticipated: I am still waiting for some AFP 
test that became necessary after revisiting a change that is a non-regression 
wrt. Isabelle2022 (and thus strictly speaking not relevant for Isabelle2023), 
but it has caused some confusion wrt. Isabelle2021-1:

summary:     more accurate treatment of option "editor_output_state", e.g. 
when changed via Isabelle/jEdit Plugin Options panel;


There might be something still coming about this today: I've spend 1-2 days 
sorting things out.


In the meantime I had to eliminate erratic noise on the isabelle-dev repository:

I have no time to give a lecture on how Isabelle development has worked the 
past decade(s).

When making a change, one always needs to provide proper reasoning (usually 
based on the recorded history). And maybe also start a discussion with the 
one(s) who is reposible for that part of the system.

ab9cc7cda0ec has no proof. Sorry.


> What is the schedule for the corresponding AFP release?

This question is still open.

We already have a tradition of delaying the Isabelle/AFP release 2-3 weeks 
without any particular reasons.
