In that case we can try to do a 1.89-prerelease (aimed at the
artists) at the same time as 1.2. This pre-release can then act 
as a base for the real 1.89 release which should then appear
about 4 weeks laters. This prerelease will not be announced then
since we want to focus the attention to 1.2.

Do people see problems with this time-frame?

Waldo
