Today we completed the language translations (task #12) and the lint checking of the code base (task #8).

Next up is tasks #9 and #10.

9) Verify 'make check' is passing on all buildbot combinations of OS and compilers

• Start discussion on octave-maintainers list about which failing tests must be fixed
• Identify and fix any tests determined critical in step above

10) Compile and run Octave test suite with --enable-address-sanitizer-flags to check for memory leaks 

• Results posted to bug report: #55415
• Memory leak in graphics subsystem #55287

I've looked through the memory leaks in bug #55415 and I don't think they are gating on the release.  However, the leak in bug #55287 should be addressed for 5.0.

This isn't a whole lot so I imagine that we could produce the first release candidate over the weekend.  That will undoubtedly flush out a few more bugs, but the process does feel like it is converging.

What about SUNDIALS problem?
