The primary purpose is to enable an installation of Megatest. With a little luck I hope to get Megatest, logpro and associated utilities complete and stable so I can install them centrally before the end of the year.

BTW, the operative word is "try" :)

A little grepping gives me the list of eggs below. I'll be doing some testing of 4.8.05 over the next week and wanted to hear from the dev's if there were patches in the queue I should wait for.
