I am almost at the point where I can do a C++ release for 1.1.  I spent
the weekend cleaning up the OpenSSL code so that it will work with 0.9.6.
So my question to the list - I think we need to do a Java release as well.
 Rather than call C++ and Java "1.1 beta" or somesuch, would people be OK
if we released version 1.1 of each.  The Signature code will be fully
supported (thus I am reluctant to call the releases "beta").  However we
will mark the encryption code as "beta" and subject to change between now
and 1.2.
That way we get a release out with some of the bug-fixes for signatures in
it (which is thus more stable), and we get the encryption stuff moving.

Not sure.  Will try to backtrack it tonight.
