Re: Stable 5 branch status
Keep in mind my problem is not necessarily that things are _broken_ but
perhaps that they are so opaque that they only make sense in the mind of

of people on IRC who can't figure out how the hell to drive this thing,
and I count myself among them. Still takes me like three tries to load
an old project without it stuffing everything up.
