I don't think I'm so muc worried about that as under-estimating the amount
of time required to finish them ... its not like *that's* never happened
before, and with something as big as some of the features that are in the
works, and with some of the major show-stoppers that the Win32 port has
brought up, I can seriously see '1 month' being drawn out further ...

Be honest ... 6 months ago, did you believe the Win32 work would have
taken >6 months?  How many of the current issues could you have
anticipated?  How many will crop up in the next month?
