Well, 180 tickets sounds like a lot until you consider that most if
not all of them probably exist in 0.6 as well.  Not to mention the 86
tickets that have been fixed in 0.7 and the fact that perhaps 50 of
the remaining tickets are enhancements and tasks.

IMO we should address the any blockers now and get 0.7 out ASAP.  Nine
months is too long to wait for new features/fixes to appear.
