I don't see any. I don't blame you about a release, just that you say that there will be a release tomorrow. One week would have been nice. > only replies i see from you is about my todo - which i did > indeed update. so you had AMPLE warning. yes.

Btw, the only thing i mention and that can block (imo only) is the thread safe stuff. Which happended very recently. Other things i mentioned are mostly related to windows. And as i said in irc, i was away during one month. No possible commit for me since mid july. Otherwise there would have been a lot of things i would have modified. Did you forgot that ? The way the release is done is just random. I really prefered Gustavo's way: a plan put somewhere in the wiki. At least we were warned long before, with precise dates.
