Wow, that's great news. Is this going to be treated as an upgrade or a
fresh install? If the latter, will there any be anything to assist in
any customizations
we may have done, such as to /etc/rc.local, etc. or are are on our own? I'm
pretty sure I could handle them *IF* I can remember all the ones I've made.

Also, what is the status of the add-ons? Have most of them be tested with 1.9.x
so that they will be ready when 2.0 goes GA? If not, I imagine that will
key a lot of people from upgrading to / installing 2.0.

Think I'll pass on that unless you need it translated to another
programming language. At this point in my life, even my Pig Latin
is a little rusty. ;-)
