What timezone is that? Meaning at what time GMT (approx) can we expect
the .tar.gz to show up?

Also, consider that wwwmaster is down ATM, so the mirror selection stuff
does not work. We're recommending everybody to go the UK mirrors ATM
(because that's what was served up as static pages). Hopefully that'll
be fixed by thursday, though.

None from me other than those already sent:
*) I'd really like to see the NT4 patch go in (SHGetFolderPath). I
beleive it's safe.
*) The stack size patch
