This is going to present a problem.

A few weeks ago I merged the development branch into the master branch 
after having run the devop tests for a few days.

Subsequent to this, I discovered some problems in the serialization 
library which didn't show up in the tests.  I've been working to make 
these changes in the develop branch but so far have been unable to get 
all the tests to pass in the develop branch.  So I need to

a) wait some more time to see the state of the develop tests and if they 
are OK merge to the master and check those

or

b) role back the last merge version 1.59.

Also I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow morning and won't be back until 
sunday night.
