[Nexus-developers] NAPI Release

[Peterson, Peter F. (pf9)]

Mark,

I agree that we are on the verge of getting things out the door. I dealt
with my tickets and recommend that others (everything left is for Freddie
now) do the same.

It looks to me that the only tickets that need to be dealt with for the
release are the leopard build issues, #137.

P^2
