Question: I've got a bunch of native win32 support changes I've been sitting on (and am now reverifying).
Should I sit on them until we release 3.2.0b5?? What about fixes for memory leaks??? I'm back to a period here at work where I can work full-time on HtDig code itself to make it work natively with Win32.... Thanks.
