Marc was supposed to roll a beta5 this weekend, but has shown no sign
of life since Friday.  (OTOH, maybe he's been busy fixing the servers.
Certainly the mailing list response for the last day or so has been
way better than it was last week.)

We were talking about an RC1 in a week, and official release a week
later, barring any nasty bugs surfacing.

I thought I was waiting for word from you concerning changes to the
regression test for Thomas' fixes for the timestamp stuff? *puzzled look*
I swear that was the last thing that I recall being mentioned :(  If its
waiting on me, I'll roll her first thing in the morning, and apologize
profusely for the delay ... :(

Looks good from here.

Don't forget to mention in the announcement that an initdb is needed
to update from earlier betas.
