I assume this vote was taken out on -core? I don't mind -core deciding on
this, not at all, but I would appreciate it if you would post the result of
the vote on -hackers. It makes a lot of difference with an open-ended
"we'll branch sometmie later" and a "we talked about it, and we decided
we'll branch in one to two weeks unless something unusual comes up".

If you alraedy did this and I missed it in the mail-flood around fixing all
the presskits, I apologize in advance ;-)
