Or its problems that we've had all along and the extensive testing
that has gone into this release has caused more ppl to see them? :)
I think that ppl are now actually running and taking to heart what
the regression tests are saying, with all the work that Thomas has put into
it, which has generated *alot* of the bug reports we've seen. As long as
we continue the trend we are following (stronger regression tests, Purification
of the code), v6.2 will be all that much stronger/stabler...but I think
continuing to postpone v6.1 because of Purification tests is going to start
annoying some ppl (me, for starters, but I think Vadim showed his
threshold tonight *grin*)
