Yes. I'm expecting to do it this evening.

Peter concluded that #1 was really only a documentation problem, and
fixed it in his latest commit. I'm not entirely convinced that he's
reading the spec correctly, but will defer to his judgment.

I agree. From what I can see, SSI is nowhere near RC-ready. We may as
well push out beta2 to get the fixes accumulated so far into the hands
of testers. (In particular, judging by the reports that have been
coming in, we really need to push the timezone-abbreviations Windows
crash fix...)
