I hope we will be able to move quickly toward a 5.9.1 release when I
return in three weeks. (Of course the holidays will slow the process.)
All the features I had intended to add to 5.9.1 (static installs,
windows command-line) are in place, if not completely debugged. This is
the time for bug fixing. I know there are fixes for many bugs in the bug
database. These need to be applied.
I am particularly excited about getting this release out because we have
planned to fix the case-sensitivity issues once and for all for the
following release, so the work will be able to commence as soon as 5.9.1
is out. I think all our lives will be made better once those problems
are fixed.
