I say we do a feature freeze on May 18th, spend two weeks testing it on
everything we can, and then do a release on June 1st.  Of course, up until
the feature freeze we can try and jam as much into it as possible. The
dates are influenced by my schedule since I'll be out of touch the last
two weeks of june, so speak up if its a problem.

I started working on the DNS stuff again, I should have something by next 
week.
