The "Christmas 2007" thing seemed so far off to me I had to confirm with the man himself. I guess it's true.

(1) Yes, YARV will support only native threads, unless someone persuade
    ko1 to implement it.  Maybe we need someone to pay him to do so.

(2) No.  ko1 has already programmed basic hooks to implement
    continuation.  But, unless someone pays, its implementation still
    has low priority.

(3) 1.9.1 will be released by Christmas 2007 (not 2006).  I know it's
    long time away.  Hopefully earlier, but we cannot hope much
    considering how much things need to be done before releasing, and
    past long period of slow progression.
