E 0.9.3 release?

The 0.9.2a release currently on the main web-site is rather buggy. In
particular:

- it often fails to start (fixed in r718)
- it contains a known security flaw (fixed in r728)
- it suffers from various race conditions while running

Any chance of a 0.9.3 release?

Thanks,


For reference, here are all the changes since 0.9.2 ("git log
v0.9.2a..git-svn  | git shortlog")

kpreid (15):
      E-on-Java: Adding some miscellaneous tests I had lying around.
      Added my deJSONKit (rewritten to use term-tree intermediates,
with better strictness, and tests) to the standard library.
      Implement sugaredBy and makerSugaredBy attributes in the safej
language (as specified in safej.schema), mostly replacing the
hardcoded tables of sugarings in ScriptMaker and StaticMaker.
      Fix bug reported on Aug 28, 2009 by Thomas Leonard:
Introducer#optUncall/1 does an instanceof without Ref.resolution and
so did not handle a resolved promise to a SturdyRef correctly.
      Improvements to safejTemplate.e:
      Updated NestedThrowable and ThrowableSugar unwrapping to use
Java 1.4 "causes".
      Improvements to safejTemplate:
      safejTemplate.e: Reformat all lines other than the regexes
(which should be rewritten to use (?x) eventually) to fit the
79-column standard. Also document that non-ASCII identifiers are not
supported.
      Fix bug causing nested-throwable.updoc to infinitely loop.
      Hide EvalContext and ScopeLayout access methods from Scope,
since they can be used to violate invariants and mutate
should-be-immutable Scopes from E code.
      Reformat doc comment for SafeJ#getOptMap().
      Allow KeyEvent.setDoit
      Quote specimen in switch statement's "no match" error
      When wrapping lines in Traceln, don't lose the last character
      Fix ScriptMaker and SafeJ to be thread-safe.

markm (9):
      Reformatted to fit within 80 columns.
      Just updating the version tag to be greater than the present release.
      Modified devrune so that e.home will still be the parent
directory of the scripts directory even during development.
      Cosmetic, comments, and doc-comments cleanups. Mostly
doc-comment cleanups to reduce the number of justified warnings from
Eclipse.
      Formatting
      From Thomas Leonard:
      Patch from Thomas Leonard:
      Fixes eBrowser.e-awt (which is generally unused anyway, since
