It's been a week since 0.8.8 was publically released, and we've accumulated
a whole bunch of bug fixes, none of which have made it to the users yet.
We still aren't in shape for a "non-beta" release, and there are still
bugs we need to decide how to fix *best* (including both Rob's ScriptAlias
bug and the file-locking business), but all the same, I think it's time
to start distributing the fixes we have. So, I'm calling for a vote on
distribution of 0.8.9 plus my scoreboard-locking patch, while we decide
what to do about the rest of this stuff. My vote on the issue is +1...
I'm not going to put anything up immediately, but if we get sufficient
+1s and no vetoes, I'd like to have something up, say, tomorrow evening.
[. If new fixes do appear subsequently, well, the page does say that
we may be changing things rapidly, so I think we have that option ;-)
What I really want to avoid is the situation we had with the first
beta, where we're perpetually holding off for a day or two at a time
