True, I still haven't made the switch.. you know, it's all too hard.. :)

So the big question is, how available are you going to be during the
cycle between the release of 0.56 and the merge of your branch to 0.57?
It looks like the issue Sebastian was seeing might not be a blocker for
a 0.56 release...
So in terms of 'managing' releases here, lets get the last of the
changes in for 0.56 in. We can release with all the improvements we
have already and look to making the merge of your branch as the primary
focus of development for the 0.57 release.
This shouldn't hold people up too much... ?

PS, I'm changing ISP's soon, I might be off line for a bit as I sort out
mailing list membership.
