Elvelind's new expose changes are cool and Michele and Alberto have
been really kicking some widget butt, but it's time to set 0.9 free.

I don't want people to be thinking about major features or refactoring
for 0.9 at this point. It should all be about stabilizing and
smoothing out 0.9 at this point. Major changes should start happening
in First Class. That's why I'd like to flip things around. That will
make this arrangement far clearer, I think.

By the way: the First Class branch is probably completely
non-functional right now. After 0.9a2, I'll put a little bit of work
to get the config changes put in, which will make it fairly functional
but there are still a number of failing tests.

What this means for contributors:

- helping to get First Class into shape over the next couple of months
would be greatly appreciated
- as you work on fixing things that are relevant to 0.9, we need to
make sure fixes wind up in the 0.9 branch. (Or, if you specifically
make the change on the 0.9 branch, we need to be sure fixes merge into
First Class as well.)

What this means for people following the trunk:

- if you're trying to get real work done, you'll likely want to move
over to the 0.9 branch after this happens. Or, you can just stick with
the releases.
- if you're trying to get real work done, you're not going to want to
use First Class when it first appears. stuff is broken.

My focus right now is really 0.9 cleanup. My purpose in making this
switch is not to de-emphasize the work that's required on 0.9, but
rather to emphasize that this release has reached a point of stability
seeking...
