IIRC, there have been discussed fixes for all these outstanding bugs.
(Excepting dpkg bugs, which have been allowed before--are we going to

Ok. A final testing period sounds good. Then the question becomes
"what's keeping us from finalizing this weekend and shipping next
weekend?" (I'm quite serious about this; if there's some concrete
outstanding issue, let's point it out and fix it.)
