Yes that’s fine.  It’s been almost a year since last release, a few more days 
won’t hurt anything.

Stefan I understand (and respect) that viewpoint and appreciate your honesty.  
It’s refreshing.  For the record, you’ve always been helpful, throughout our 
move of fortress into the apache directory project, up to the present time.  
And I will gladly accept any further help you can find the time for.  Certainly 
verifying apache release requirements is important.  Especially now we have 
added the other three as official apache releases.  Actually I counted on 
exactly that from you and would have been surprised w/out it.  :-)

This is a very good point and I too encourage others, regardless of project 
status, to place your vote.  If you have benefited from this project in the 
past, now is a good time to show your appreciation.
