Hi All,

I'm pleased to announce the libusb-1.0.20-rc1 release.

It has been over a year since the last release, and a lot of changes have
gone in during that time (86 commits).

2015-07-29: v1.0.20

* Fix multiple memory and resource leaks (#16, #52, #76, #81)
* Fix possible deadlock when executing transfer callback
* New libusb_free_pollfds() API
* Darwin: Fix devices not being detected on OS X 10.8 (#48)
* Linux: Allow larger isochronous transfer submission (#23)
* Windows: Fix broken builds Cygwin/MinGW builds and compiler warnings
* Windows: Fix broken bus number lookup
* Windows: Improve submission of control requests for composite devices
* Improve efficiency of event handling
* Improve speed of transfer submission in multi-threaded environments
* Various other bug fixes and improvements
The (#xx) numbers are libusb issue numbers, see ie:

FWIW: we've tested over a few days now with OS X 10.6 through 10.11 betas and have found no issues (for our use cases).

Cheers,

So it is perhaps time to release an rc2...?
