I could do an 8.8.0 import in about 20 minutes, based on the last time I did it. I'm not aware of any major problems that have turned up since release, although a couple of relatively minor problems have turned up on the sendmail beta list. One was a NULL deref in a printf, which doesn't affect us, and the other (I think) was something that turns up only when using fcntl locking, pollibly allowing duplicate delivery over uucp. Again, no problem for us since we use flock, not fcntl. We could certainly use some of the newer features (persistant host status for starters) on freefall to lighten the mail load dramatically, as well as more bullet-proof anti-spam filtering hooks.
