[EP-tech] <epc:list> not implemented for 3.4.x
Hi Alex,
Those must have never got added to 3.4.? I can see that I edited the
wiki for this back in April 2019.? This would have been shortly after
3.4.1 was released.? At the time we were still maintaining an internal
Subversion and an external Git master branch for the codebase, which was
a bit of a nightmare to maintain as you can probably imagine.? Before
3.4.2, I rationalised this so there is only the Git master branch
available at:

I suspect what may have happened was that these additional EPC functions
feel through the cracks during the rationalisation process.? I will see
if I can dig a little deeper and find out what went wrong.? I have also
added a GitHub issue for these to be added in time for 3.4.4:

I am really not sure when 3.4.4 will be released as the list of issues
still open and associated with that milestone is still rather long and I
seem to have very little time to work on them. The end of April 2022 may
be overly optimistic.? Especially, as I need to write a whole suite of
user acceptance tests for CI, before I even get to the testing phase of
a 3.4.4 release.

David Newman
