Message We're getting close to 1.6.0-final. We've had very little word about
showstopper bugs in this release, and it looks like we're going to be
able to proceed with a release next month. Here's the current timeline:

Mar. 16 @ 1200 UTC - Have finalized CHANGES file merged to trunk
Mar. 16 @ 1800 UTC - Roll 1.6.0-rc4, solicit signature collection
Mar. 17 (est.) - Publish 1.6.0-rc4 release
Mar. 18 @ 2200 UTC - Roll 1.6.0 final from same rev as 1.6.0-rc4
Mar. 20 @ 1500 UTC - Publish 1.6.0 release

Glancing over 1.6.x STATUS, there is one issue which concerns me a
little:

  * ^/branches/1.6.x-UNC-paths
    Resolves the regression on 1.6.X that disabled UNC path support on
Windows.
    (All \\server\share format paths were canonicalized to /local/dir
format).
    Justification:
      A lot of Windows users use UNC paths in corporate environment.
While
      not fully supported until issue #2028 and #2556 are resolved,
this is a
      serious regression against older versions.
    Notes:
      Most of the changes in this branch are tests on the behavior of
path
      functions. The real changes are in path.c and reroute unc paths to
      svn_dirent_*() functions.
      The tests are there to make sure we don't regress again on the
1.6.x
      branch and to allow future merges in this part of the code.
    Votes:
      +1: rhuijben, gstein

This doesn't effect me directly, but it I can see how this could
impact a number of our users. If possible, I'd like to see this
reviewed so it can get into the final 1.6.0 tarball.

Thanks to everyone who's worked hard to make Subversion 1.6 the best
Subversion release yet!
