  It doesn't really matter, as whenever we do a release, it'd show up as
an update. Getting out before the Ubuntu code freeze only means it makes
the initial CD images. Since Gnash currently doesn't build with the
ffmpeg version in Ubuntu oneiric, that would need to be fixed first anyway.

  There are some things I'd like to get done before the next release,
but I doubt any will be ready for a month or two. Since most of those
are OpenVG/OpenGLES oriented, having them in the next release isn't
critical.

  I'm not so sure I want to get distracted from current development
tasks by doing a release this month. And I am the one that has to do the
actual release. I guess I could be talked into it, but I think a feature
freeze makes more sense after fixing any bugs we'd want fixed, rather
than fixing them in the release branch.
