Hey everybody. We're preparing to push another beta into stable in the next day or so, so if everybody could check out the code and make sure it compiles and runs correctly, especially things that aren't covered by the regressions like checkpointing/restoring, etc., that would be very helpful. I'm currently running all regressions on zizzer with a mixture of opt and fast to try to catch silent assertions. Also, if there's something you did that you want reflected in the AUTHORS file, please add it.
