We can shoot for it. Here's the todo list:
* remove "best is better than ever" verbiage
* add in developer quote (I haven't heard from peter yet)
* reword all changes paragraph
* final spell / grammar check press release

It would also be nice if someone could spruce up the "all changes" page.
You don't need access to the server, just grab the web page and fix it
up and send it to me (or a patch even) and I'll put it in place.

I don't have a list of translators so someone needs to get that list
together. I'd suggest sending out an email to all the translators today
to prep them and find out if we can get translations back by Wednesday
morning.
