Yes, a very nice feature! I love graphs :-)

Welcome all, and thanks for your contributions.

I would also veer towards releasing 1.5, then upgrading to Rails 2.0,  
unless:

a) There are significant speed/efficiency improvements (as others  
have mentioned)
b) Upgrading to 2.0 would require significant changes to users'  
databases. As people will already have to do a bit of work up upgrade  
their databases for 1.5, I don't want people to have to do it twice  
in quick succession.

cheers,

P.S. I apologise to everyone for being so slack about working on,  
writing about or otherwise contributing to Tracks recently. Everyone  
(particularly Luke) has being doing sterling work in my absence, but  
I'm sorry not to have been more present. It has been a tough and very  
busy year :-/
