Well, looking through the change log, about 90% of the changes since the last release have contained the word 'fix'. A lot of the changes I made were fixes because PyObjC discovered bugs in GNUstep. I'd like to tighten up some of the ARC-related stuff, but I'm not too bothered about the stability of things like ARC / GC - they're not yet used by many people yet - but lots of the other stuff has been bug fixed since the last release.
We don't have many new untested features, but we do have a lot of fixes since the last release. I think we've actually done more bug fixing since the release than during the code freeze period prior to it...
