Re: pluto testsuite question

True, but in addition to kicking around for a while I tried to cut the 
test build for the GA release last night.  I ran into a couple of issues 
with the release process, but they are now resolved and I'll be cutting 
it within the next few days - if not tonight.

There's been a push to get the GA release of 1.1.0 out recently because 
both Sakai Portal and uPortal are now using it.  Until now, there just 
hasn't been a huge push to cut GA simply because those using the beta 
weren't as worried with the label as much as they were whether or not 
their specific app worked.

If you want to monitor progress of the release, check out the dev list:

Hope that helps,
