Let's hope so! Targeting Zero will be hard to achieve in such a short
time I fear, though :) I will go through the wish list next and close
the bazillions of stuff that is already implemented :)

Hm, he talked about Friday 28th, not 21st, as FrosCon is 22+23rd of
August. Maybe you thought of the wrong weekend?

But on the other hand, Mark and I will be away for about a week too,
from 21st to about 26-27th, FrosCon first, going to pay Mark's parents
a visit. I hope this is not too much of a problem.

Somebody needs to go through the changelog though, as I think there
are quite a few things missing that have been implemented since trunk
opened. I will try having an eye on it while closing implemented
wishes anyway.


Regards, Myriam.
