Best idea yet!! Get a release that will compile (correctly) on a variety of
platforms, and get it out. Then "we" can attack the flaws/bugs in a
reasonable time frame. If there is a "release" that "works" (and has for
a reasonable length of time), call it.
Getting into the "patch" idea of something like CAP (i thought it was bad at
"patch" 100!!) is a bit silly.
I'm for version 2!!
