That is good news, thank you. I'm going to make one final push this weekend to try to get the signal handling / termination code working the way I want it. Regardless of whether I succeed or not I intend to package an RC1 release no later than Monday. I have a few other bugs reported with patches on Savannah that I will at least investigate, as well. In order to give the translators etc. time to work on it, as well as allow for some more soak time with other testers who may not want to build from Git, I will allow at least 2 weeks of test time for the release candidate cycle. That would put the release sometime in early October, unless issues are found that push things out.
