(But I still don't know of a better expression.) I'm in doubt myself about releasing. If we can solve the issue before "end of the weekend" I would say to wait a little longer, but I have no idea whether that's feasible. As the release cycle has already been extended I would almost say to release the 2011.0. The hidden trap is that we might keep extending the release. If we find a simple solution to 2011.0 after release, we can decide to release a 2011.0.01 or 2011.0.p1 version (p1 for patch 1), both as tgz/bz and as bundle and probably only for OSX. The issue is also that I don't know whether a cmake build on a 10.5 machine will correctly run (and I'm still not able to build a virtual 10.5 system). And if the 2011.2 progresses far more rapidly than this release we can easily bridge the gap and explain it on the SF website. > As you want. You choose.

Please start the 2011.2 release cycle planning this weekend. I will give feedback on the possible solution of the issue and we can decide Sunday at the latest whether we can solve the issue within days and otherwise we go for the 2011.0 release.
