Just an update:
We got a bunch of volunteers pretty quickly. I've set up some basic
parallelization infrastructure, and sent out an introductory mail to
the group. Anyone else who wants to follow what's going on, see:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=manyhands&msgNo=1
When we're done (hopefully within a week), we'll incorporate the
results back into the master CHANGES file. After that, I'll finish up
the Release Notes too -- just myself, not a parallel job -- since that
should be pretty easy after editing the CHANGES file.
That's the news,
-Karl
