That would be good. I'm afraid I have not looked at your branch. Of course I will when it gets into trunk as that’s what I tend to work on. I will also try to test the branch out on Windows before the merger. When are you planning on doing this ? I have only ever know David to perform a release, I would have thought he would need to be around for a release whether being RM or not, at least until someone else has done it. In fact, I'd go as far to say we need many people around for a release, the lists are quiet currently, all the main contributors of the past releases are very busy these days. In other words, I'm not sure who else will be around if a release were to happen soon. > > I would love to help to port forrest to cocoon 2.2 again since it solves > some common integration problems quite nicely.

I see, so if a few folks were to do it, how long are we talking about, a weekend, a week, a Forrest Friday ? You see, I am no really cluey on Cocoon much, with some how-to Im sure I could help though. Gav... > > > Remember that anyone who is subscribed to this > > dev mail list should assist.
