My last changes (disable index) to the 1.1.x tree have been on 11/11. 
And I think I asked in that context for testing. I have hammered on it 
with all kinds of failover and rebuild tests on FreeBSD and everything 
turned out as supposed. Slon still exits after sometimes way too long 
timeouts, but that problem is not to be fixed before 1.2.

If we get a candidate tarball this week and people really DO test 
things, I think end of next week isn't out of the question. But we will 
for sure not have a release if nobody is going to test.
