Hi,

another status update on the 1.6.0 release:
Now the device database is almost completely populated with the devices 
we have direct access to. We will need another run of the nightly tests 
to make sure some the last-minute changes are in good order. If 
everything runs well we can release tomorrow. :-)

Best regards,
Karli
