We are planning a 1.5.2 for primarily three issues which are affecting
production servers without a reasonable workaround.  In general,
anything which has a workaround or was not a serious regression we
hold off until the next 1.x series.  For 1.5.2 the only issues we are
considering so far are:

# JRUBY-4767  2010-04-30T11-38  Yesterday 4:40 PM  JRuby and open-uri
File handle issue
# Bug JRUBY-4981 2010-07-30T12-51 Yesterday 4:39 PM Anonymous classes
are piling up and filling up PErmGen, eventually causing a crash
# Bug JRUBY-4841 2010-06-02T13-27 Yesterday 4:39 PM CLONE -Memory Leak
when extending Java class with additional Ruby instance variable

We will talk about whether to put in JRUBY-4937 for inclusion, but we
want to be very conservative on what goes into 1.5.x so that people
using 1.5.1 has an easier time moving their production systems to it.
The more we put in the harder that decision becomes.
