Buildrs, Lots of issues have been piling up on the 1.3.4 target. It's a good sign that the project is gathering momentum.
I think it would be healthy to have a 1.3.4 release in the January timeframe. For this to happen, I'm planning to shuffle the issues around to remove any issues that are not critical _and_ don't have proposed patches. For the remaining bugs that are either critical or have patches, I'd like to solicit further contribution to take these issues down the last mile of commit into our codebase. Some issues will need proper testing, some just need a little review and some will need a motivated volunteer to make it happen. If there's no objections, I'll do a first clean up tomorrow. alex
