Thanks for your work on this. I'll bear with you all week long and much beyond that ;). My stance is this: If we can get a new release out soon, great. If not (e.g. because our volunteer members have other things to do that simply have a higher priority in their life: Then that's how it is! Nobody can "blame" you for that. Rather, it should be viewed the opposite way: If you manage to do anything (testing, bug fixing, doing a release), you should get credit and praise :).


Same to Daniel, Sjors, Justin and anybody else who is currently working on improving fink and the core packages. Thanks you, guys, you rock!


Best wishes,
Max
