Re: Open items

Oh, let me add that this release has gone very smoothly. We are right
on schedule in release timing. I sometimes think the beta period is not
as productive as the development period, but going through it, I am
always reminded how much more polished our final product is because of
the hard work we do during the beta period --- it isn't exciting, but it
is very valuable.
