me as well ... However, i am still in sabbatical and hardly-online-at-all mode. 

should we go for a 0.9.1 release by backporting (verbatim, if possible) some 
bugfixes and their tests from dist/trunk to svn/py/release/0.9.x and then
releasing 0.9.1 from it?  

I think that going for merging Maciej's reporter branch, reviewing 
accumulated trunk and dist changes is too much - i wouldn't like to tackle it 
this year (at least if you ask me today).  

Martijn, a related question: aren't you involved with launchpad?  Do you think 
using it would be benefitial for the py lib and its development/releases?  
Could you possibly help with setting us up?  What do others think about the idea? 

best & cheers,
