Yeah, I do want to get this done.  FYI, I'm going to be away on vacation
from 8/31 - 9/12, but feel free to do RC1 while I'm not here.  I'll
probably be checking email a couple times, but I plan on being mostly
unreachable otherwise ^_^.

8/31 is a Thursday...

this has been the default behavior for months now...
