What API changes have we made that are so great that we can't release 1.0.5? The only area where I have seen real problems is in masked arrays. My preference would be to release the trunk as 1.0.5, and if not, simply deprecate 1.0.4 and move to 1.1. I don't think it's worth the time and effort to backport anything. Chuck
