No, I'm not committing to doing that. However, as you, Doug Gregor, and
I agreed in San Francisco, there should be a branch of every release
available for checking in critical bugfixes, so a user can get the
updates by checking out from svn. It's not a point release, but it's
far better than a collection of hotfix patches. Anyone who wants to
selectively revert (or apply) fixes in the point release branch can do
so easily with svn.
