Chris, 

  Not a problem from my side, I'm busy having a life <g>.  I'm ready to test 0.6.0 anytime, or if you or Matt have made changes in 0.5.0...  I don't see anything on the board, but I'll keep checking.
Dave

Just wanted to say thanks. Sorry it's been quiet lately: Matt's been busy at work and I've been moving. Hopefully we'll have 0.6.0 packages to test soon enough!
