Yes, that's right. The schedule is for releases to come out every two weeks, but it varies a bit. The 128 release was a bit late (that is, I think it was more than two weeks between 127 and 128a); but it looks like 129 will be out pretty soon--so probably less than two weeks between 128a and 129. Unfortunately, that puts us on track to have 130 out the week of Christmas; given vacation schedules and the Sun shutdown between Christmas and New Years, that release might be a bit later. But it should be out the first week of January, if not sooner. -renee
