FWIW, I'm going to be around, and am fairly free during the US Memorial
Day weekend 24th - 26th.  Can we shoot for getting a release out that
weekend?  If we can code freeze by the 22nd, I can throw together a
release candidate on Friday (with Tim's help for Windows) and a final by
Monday.

What do you folks think?
