I've flushed my queue over the last weeks; nothing significant is pending 
right now.  At the moment I'm trying to stabilize patch for the next stable 
release, which is supposed to happen in about a month's time.  Anything major 
would go into the release after that.

Patches are welcome. (I hope you won't mind the GNU copyright assignment / 
disclaimer paperwork.)

Andreas
