You could start by a thread for 2.061: what's new, in a human-readable
format.

I'd say:

- 64 bits for Windows
- User-Defined Attributes (with a link to the incoming documentation).

These two themes justify a new release by themselves. Window 64 was clearly
an 'official' goal. UDA were just a momentary burst of coding from Walter :)

As for the future, I fear you'll get 'generic' declarations concerning
const/immutable/shared, but halas not from the guys who actually do the
real work. Then everyone and their dog will flock to present their pet bug.

The process is still a bit amateurish, but it's coming together. Now that
64 bits Windows is out, I guess the next release will focus on killing the
related bugs.

As a token of goodwill, I'm willing to write a short text describing the
new release and plans for the next ones, except I don't even *know* what
the new release brought or what the next one will be.
