[Pacemaker] Seriously, what's up with the releases?

Its probably been noticed that I haven't been around much lately, and  
that the December release is overdue - to put it politely.

Rest assured I'm still here working overtime on Pacemaker, but my  
contractual obligation to get the cluster stack ready for SLES11 are  
taking up most of my time at the moment.

It also hasn't helped that my test cluster kept throwing up new and  
exciting errors that CTS (not Pacemaker) wasn't equipped to handle -  
such as syslog logging with the pre-dhcp-assigned hostname :-/

Which of course doesn't help those of you hitting bugs in 1.0.1 that I  
fixed ages ago.

So what I propose to do is, now that CTS is running smoothly again,  
run the regression tests on Monday/Tuesday and release 1.0.2 with the  
caveat that it has only been tested on OpenAIS.  It _should_ continue  
to work on Heartbeat, there's no reason why it wouldn't, but I won't  
have the bandwidth to verify this for the next month or so.

Then, with luck, it'll be back to a regular 1.0.3 in March thats been  
tested with both stacks.


Of course if someone wanted to volunteer to do the testing on  
Heartbeat, that would also be a significant help :-)
