Gael,
I didn't realize the release was tomorrow already!  I'm sorry I didn't 
bring this up earlier.  If it can't happen before the release, I 
understand and that's fine.

The doc-test thing might be an issue, since it involves working with 
some of the data files.  I know Olivier's tutorial did a better job of 
separating doc-test-worthy code from other example code; I didn't do 
that as well as he.
