I will discuss timing with Sally and see what feedback she has. In my mind, this PR provides information about a release than was made on 12-27-12 and it provides news that we are a TLP. The site mirrors and resources have been upgrading and we are finding errors on some of the drives & revised error messages.....so, this week or next week is just about the earliest we could send this info out. > The vote for the Installer ends tomorrow.

I will discuss timing with Sally and see what feedback she has and post here with the advice. > Also, should we mention a redesigned project website in the press release? I do not think we should. Mentioning that we are publishing a redesigned website is something that we are proud of, but, isn't something a business application owner would find important. This is something that a business application owner expects to see.
