Re: HISTORY file

I am still working on the 7.3 HISTORY file. I have extracted the items,
but I have to worksmith them and write an introduction.

It is midnight here now. I don't think I can finish before ~3am and at
that point, I am not sure I will know what I am writing.

Basically, one day of feature freeze wasn't enough time for me to get
this together. I could have worked on it earlier, but I didn't have time
then either --- only the feature freeze has given me time to work on
this.

Should we ship beta1 without a HISTORY or delay one day? People should
probably review this HISTORY file too, and there isn't time for that
either unless we delay.

If all our beta testers are on Hackers, I can post the list when I am
done so you can package.

I don't know of any other items holding up the packaging.

Gotta brand the thing as 7.3beta1 not 7.3devel, no?

Yes, I haven't gotten to the release checklist yet. Let's delay a day.

I have a 17k line log file down to 3.5k lines, but it will end up around
~250 lines. That will take some time.

Or at least late in the day tomorrow. I have some loose ends to clean
up yet as well, but I'm beat and am going to bed.

But I assume we are now officially in feature freeze, right?

S'alright, I can do the package together tomorrow morning to let you wrap
up the loose ends :)

Yes, definitely ... and unless any of you have any showstoppers, I'll do
the beta1 packaging first thing Wed morning instead of today ;);
