Hi!

ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Court=C3=A8s) skribis:

It=E2=80=99s been almost two months since the 0.2 release.  We achieved som=
e of
the important items above (cross-compilation, and cross-compilation of
the bootstrap tools); other items are not ready yet (MIPS port, GTK+);
there are also bonuses, such as debugging info support.

So I would like to merge =E2=80=98core-updates=E2=80=99 soon, and release 0=
.3 within one
or two weeks.

Thoughts?
