        Sure sure - the real hope is that (once we are clean with it - still
work to do there) - we can use Microsoft's new binary document format
validator to automatically regression test this. Sadly the thing is not
open-source, so we can't easily use it except on Windows, but ... hey.

        :-) that is hard to judge; people's memory gets rosier and rosier with
the passage of time, there were some pretty hideous bugs we shipped with
I think.

        Looks great to me. I suggest we also put it at the top of the page as
well.

        :-) we can keep green for the ultra-stable release I guess.

        How does that sound ? :-)

        ATB,
