I am not sure who is our Release Co-ordinator now.  Matt, is it you or
Eugene?

Anyway, I hope you and Aaron and Eugene will get together and
organize such a day (see the "[Kde-games-devel] Fwd: Re:  KGoldrunner
update" thread for what Aaron and Eugene said).

Aaron has offered to bring in KDE developers from outside KDE Games,
which will minimise testing-bias, and lots of people read his blog.

All the best, Ian W.

P.S. My apologies for messing up the "KGoldrunner update" thread.
KMail had an attack of the wobblies ... or maybe I did ... ;-)
