Yurk. I dunno. Well, we'll be in better shape this time around then
last time, I can guarantee you. I do intend to stop working on the
slink branch RSN and instead work on the potato "trunk" (not before
merging all changes in).

Hmm... Yeah, I think -devel-announce would be ok and more people would
see it.

Ok. Which one should be default? (web, I assume).
Hey, do you think we should put the release notes in its own
subdirectory?
Let me know before you start working on it. This work, since it's for
potato and not slink, would have to be done on the CVS trunk rather
than the branch. If you give me a few days notice before you start
working on the trunk I should be able to do a branch merge so recent
slink changes will propogate to potato (the trunk).
Just a warning -- AFAIK, the documentation doesn't even build on the
trunk/potato version yet. Should be pretty easy to fix though.
