The branch is tagged with a release tag, so I have no aversion if people 
_want_ to check fixes in.... but my personal opinion is that I can't see 
us doing another release based on the 2.0 branch. If we wanted to do one, 
I would suggest cutting a new branch off the trunk. But there's nothing to 
warrant that for a while yet IMHO.

BTW, sorry I've been well out of the loop recently. I'm still, er, 
preoccupied (as per <http://worf.jifvik.org:9999/gallery/baby>). I'll try 
and get back into things now.
