Howdy good sir!
I've been taking a look at string_abstraction2 this evening. (Well, I

Hi,
Some motions were made to switch to LGPLv3. I think it's a good for Free

Hey Guilers,
I didn't push anything specific regarding a freeze, but in practice
since we're so few, we've been great at just putting in release-worthy
fixes :)
I would say that we are definitely on track for a 1.9 on the 19th. I
