I think this is all an interesting conversation, but one that needs  
to be pushed off for just a bit.  I've actually had the pleasure of  
being in the same city as Marcus for the last few days (we were both  
in Redmond, Washington) and I've elbowed him a few times to get code  
this next release ready to ship.  I believe we're there once  
everything is committed.
