Actually, you proposed beta2 as the branch time for this release, and no one objected. I think we will have to be flexible and see how heavy the patching is during beta, but I think the latest would be on release date. Our releases are very solid now, so we have very little patching after release, and now that I and Tom are fulltime, we can handle the load of double-patching better. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
