I plan to release 2009.05-rc1 this coming weekend, so if you have any new features that you would like to see in the release, NOW is the time to post them / remind me. After the release candidate I'll only look@patches fixing problems so we can stabilize the tree for a release mid May. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
