[Wayne Stambaugh <stambaughw@xxxxxxxxx>]

I remember that conversation.  We will continue on with 5.0.1 as is.  If
there isn't any other reason to delay, I will make the release
announcement this evening between 7 and 10PM EST with a note about the
Eagle import issue.

Unless there are any other quick hit bug fixes that we want to get in to
the 5.0.2 release, I will tag commit e34dc4ab in the 5.0 repo so we can
start preparing for the next release as soon as possible.  This will be
the shortest time ever between releases for KiCad. ;)

Cheers,

Wayne
