Everyone has an 'endgame in sight', at least when they ask for a release
to be postponed ... but then their date keeps slipping, etc ...

The thing is, if win32 is 'that close to being finished', then as soon as
v7.4 is out, that code should be ready to throw in ... and the same for
every other features that could 'postpone a release' ...

I'd rather see the dev cycle shortened by a month, then extended ...
