Heh. We've always had some pending/unresolved issues, and I think that as
out tracking gets better, there's likely to be more of them. A number of
bug-reports are either hard to reproduce (often including from the
reporter) or end up without updates etc.

So yes, I do end up releasing with pending issues, although I often try to
get a gut feel for what kind of severity we're talking about and not
release with *big* pending issues.
