There are yet more fixes that have been cooking in next and then master that have been merged to 'maint' in preparation for the next 1.6.1.X maintenance release.
On the 'master' front, I think we are ready to plan for 1.6.2 release. Tonight's "What's cooking" should be a pretty good guide for estimating what will be in -rc0, in addition to what we already have in 'master'.
* The 'maint' branch has these fixes since the last announcement.
