I am proud to announce the release of D-Bus 0.92, the "Hanging By A
Thread" release.  This release has multiple improvements in the
threading subsystem including proper thread locking in pending calls and
the move from enforcing early thread initialization to the more flexible
initialize before the second thread is started semantics.  There are
also a large number of bug fixes that went into this release.

As of now there are only a few more blocker bugs and TODO items before
we can reach the all important 1.0 milestone.  In particular the
auditing of the todo and fixme comments in the code is one of the more
important parts that can hold us back.  It would be of great help if we
could get some eyes on these sections and see if we can get some patches
or just punt ones that aren't all that important.  

So have fun, download it, bang on it and join us on #dbus on
freenode.net to how you can help to accelerate the final release and get
your name in the 1.0 credits.

As always:
