Post-release donuts are on me if we can get a good percentage of these bugs resolved. :) As someone with no qualms about shipping stuff with known bugs (in preference for shipping stuff with unknown bugs), I want to remind people that we agreed to only work on critical bugs between RC1 and 1.1 final. Any change can introduce unforseen consequences, and it is the last minute quick fixes without a full beta-test that often turn out to be troublespots in shipping code, primarily because without the widespread tests there is no way to find out what the consequences of the change are. If everyone is going to rush ahead patching things, then we are going to have to do an RC2 release, completely lock down the CVS branch to all but the most critical defects, then ship the final product two weeks later.
