So, Paul, you are +1 on the overall proposal?  Hashing out the specific bug
fixes for 1.2.12 is a TBD.  I was not suggesting that these specific fixes
had to go in as part of the proposal.  Appreciate the quick review.

And, of course, when you get a chance to do the jDiff report, that will be
great.  It will be cool if we can post the generated docs to the website as
well.  That will really help in communicating the upcoming changes and
differences.
