While not desperate, the PunyInform community is certainly looking forward to the next release. We’re eager to use recent features to reduce story file size and to make the plural flag work as expected for long dictionary words.

I’m not averse to doing a release soon, but the issue with the plural flag and long dictionary words is still unresolved, at least as I understand it.

For the long dictionary words, I think I’m just going to say “you have to opt into the bug fix, sorry.”
I should be able to finish that, the plural flag, and the remaining MAX_ABBREV_LENGTH code this weekend.
