Can this wait till 3.0.3? 3.0.2 has already been made and tagged in
the release archive, and a few people had made builds. Please note
that I intend to cut down the intervals between minor releases; you
can expect 3.0.3 until the end of September.
But I think that only build failures or perhaps test segfaults are
serious enough to unfreeze an already frozen release.
Also, I currently follow the policy of waiting for changesets to be
applied into development archive then transplant them; I'd like to
avoid diverting from the development archive as much as possible. John
has not, however, applied the patch yet, so that would mean another
delay for 3.0.2.

opinions?
