Or am *I* missing something? As soon as we announce a "candidate release", a whole slew of people who didn't feel like debugging a "frozen, with bug fixes still to come" release will try it out -- thus unveiling a whole new bunch of bugs. Hopefully, none of these are critical, and we'll be able to release it. Standard software testing methodology, really... Cheers, - Jim
