23 I don't believe so. I'll give it until Wednesday 12:00 UTC and put it out then
24 if nothing comes up. I don't expect anything to, but I'm having a couple of
25 whiskeys atm before bed and will be heading out to a drinking establishment
26 tomorrow... ;)

31 As are we all. However, the wait seems to be doing good. While trunk is has
32 been reopened for a while, the only things that have gone in have been in
33 testing outside of trunk for a while which has improved quality greatly.
34
35 Given people's expectations of what 2.0.54 should be I'm not sure of what will
36 happen with 2.1/2.2. However, given the quality that trunk currently has it
37 might be best to split off a branch and lock down the changes in 2.0.54 as
38 soon as the first _pre is released. As far as I know, everything I listed in
39 my last email to the ".53, .54.." thread have existing tested patches so we
40 can probably get a 2.0.54 up to where 2.0.53 is now in half the time...
