It's still "In Progress" mostly because I flaked out for the holidays
after pushing to get most things ready for commit or returned a few
weeks ago, but not quite nailing it shut. I'm back to mostly full-time
on this starting tomorrow, the remains I can deal with will get sorted
out then.

The main question still lingering about is the viability of pushing out
an 9.2alpha3 at this point. That was originally scheduled for December
20th. There was a whole lot of active code whacking still in progress
that week though. And as soon as that settled (around the 30th), there
was a regular flurry of bug fixes for a solid week there. A quick
review of recent activity suggests right now might finally be a good
time to at least tag alpha3; exactly what to do about releasing the
result I don't have a good suggestion for.

There were 31 things committed during CF 2011-11. It feels to me like
there was a larger balance of refactoring compared to feature changes in
this one compared to most. That seems like something we'd like to get
more regression testing on, but at the same time there's not too many
new things for people to be excited about trying.
