I think we ironed out all the issues, and I'm just waiting for Ian to do the
actual release, because I'd like to base the Debian package on that rather
than the CVS export that I've used so far for testing.  Once I get the
official release, it will only take about a day to create the new Debian
package and get it into unstable.

The release manager for Debian has the final say on when the next major
release will occur, and the standard line is: it will be released when it's
ready.  On the other hand, he did publish a timeline aimed at a December 1
release, and in order to achieve that, we were told to make the last major
changes by October 1.  Hmm, it looks like we're running out of time, unless
things get pushed back.

Ian, what's the story? :-)
