Thanks Travis!

It's been a labor of love.

We squashed one remaining bug yesterday, and there's one left. We've
been chasing it down the rabbit hole, and I'll have some info soon.

If we don't have a solid lead by the end of the day, we'll probably just
release it, and put out ".1" when the bug is fixed.
