Good, while we know of a few outstanding issues, I think we have closed all
the blockers. So now its just a matter of deciding when to do a release.

I plan to cut a new beta this weekend, and do some of the tasks that have been
waiting for me to not be so swamped at work. I have one specific bug in mind
I would still like to land a fix for, and a few other that would be nice to
have but not required. We could cut an RC1 or final release next weekend.

That would be nice. At least at first, we will keep it super strict.
Everything will have a bug/issue etc. The policy side is where it gets ugly.

That is part of why I would like to split policy from the rest of the
userspace for the next release.
