Umm... okay.

1.  I see a lot of m/0.2808_03 +FAIL/ in there.  Did you chase-down 
several of those?  Are you saying that having "some fail" on 0.2808 
implies that "some fail" on 0.2808_03 means no regression, or did you 
manage to somehow correlate the 0.2808_03 fails to the same machines 
sending 0.2808 fails?

2.  Where are these reports coming from?  Again, the subject of false 
fails:  I would hate for testers to be pummelling other authors with 
alpha M::B errors while the M::B maintainers are left blissfully 
ignorant.

But those are just observations on the past.  I think we're probably 
ready to ship.

Thanks,
Eric
