If I could go back in time and shuffle the version numbers around s.t. the current svn could be relesed as 0.15.0, I would... but since most distros now ship the rewrite rather than 0.14.2, it's a moot point. The only real downside is that so many betas between branded Stable(tm) releases gives the appearance (and sometimes, the feel) of a 1.0 deathmarch, which isn't really the case. cheers, Charles
