I have been looking at the rc bugs graph* since the last 2-3 months and from the (immediate) trends it looks as if Etch release might see the lights of day in June at the earliest. If you want to wait for the release, we have a lot of time to discuss the advantages ;)

Steve do you think there would be any advantage of getting a secure certificate from cacert.org than generating one yourself. The one advantage I see is that it will be from a trusted CA (they say Debian already has it, and Mozilla will add it too) and hence won't pop open the dialogs which come up for non-trusted certificates.

And as I usual a feature request: an indicator for new articles since the user last visited (for registered users). I could try making an icon for that :)

* - Is there a way to get the graph data and apply some extrapolation techniques?
