Hi!

We've made a great progress on fixing and cleaning up the unit tests, I'd like 
to thank everybody involved for their contribution. We still have some failures 
and tests with unclear status, so I think it's better we take another week 
before we release the
beta and try to work them out, just to be sure. So I think it makes sense to 
postpone the beta to 15th.

As a heads-up, Felipe has updated gcov.php.net with a new page to show
expected failures.  Currently only the 5.3 build has completed since
this change was merged:
http://gcov.php.net/viewer.php?version=PHP_5_3&func=expected_tests

For 5.4, there are still are a bunch of systematic failures on gcov
e.g. imap, pdo_firebird, pdo_odbc that need attention, along with less
obvious issues.  Volunteers welcome.

Getting gcov tests resolved should be our aim.  Even though gcov
builds are not continuously run or fully representative of all the
extensions and potential environments it is visible and is how the
world rightly or wrongly measures PHP
