Hi, no bugs have been reported recently other than 8494 which is now
fixed and is relatively minimal in scope. I will wait one more week
and if nothing else comes up 1.12.0 will be released. The current test
version is 1.12.0-rc6. Im certain theres some bugs hiding in there that
I cant find, I refuse to believe that all this work has been as bug-free
as has been reported, please test test sorcery!

Thanks

-Andrew
