Hi there! ;)

Well, I was quiet for a while, 'cause I was reading jmpp (John?)
document about releases. To be completely honest, it's not that
different from the releases I did for my personal projects and the
projects at work [wonderful world were everyone uses SVN ;)]. But, as
anyone working in a big project, I'm scared of doing something stupid
and botching the whole thing.

I'm also listening to the worries of users and developers about this,
so I can keep that in mind when doing it. And, as pointed before, I
don't have an impressive number of ports under my belt (I just did
send a small patch to ircstats, IIRC) but it's in my plans to get more
in touch with MacPorts code before going further. I know people *want*
a release, I just want to be sure it will not be the worst release
ever.
