Re: Bird 3.2.0 crashing with "Assertion 'DG_IS_LOCKED(orig->domain)' failed at lib/resource.c:208"

[Maria Matejka]

Hello, this looks like something to be released in 3.2.1, and we are currently finalizing that release. Sorry for the quiet approach, we were swamped by other work. 

Gonna return to you in several days when the release gets an actual shape.

Have a nice weekend!
