glad to see someone posted about this.  i was kind of anxious for this
release, but more stability is infinitely preferable to a
quick-and-dirty release.  

i'd also second a vote for some kind of notification/updates on the main
page.  this is the first info i've seen about any of it, and i'm sure
there are a good number of other people wondering what's going on.  at
the least, it might lower the number of people checking the ftp sites
for iso images.
