0.8.4 status

We are really getting down to the short strokes.

Here is the current list of bugs for the 0.8.4 release:
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=1602

Only 16 bugs left to fix. 5 are feed bugs (which means they shouldn't
actually be bugs but metabugs with the feed). 3 are install doc bugs.
Out of the 8 that are left, 3 have patches attached to them.

Now is the time to:
1. Get patches together for the last few bugs.
2. Get drafts of the install docs out at the least.
3. Find or report new bugs if they are not currently blocking the 0.8.4
   bug.
4. Ask for help with bugs if you need it.

Some comments on the last few bugs.

Bug 1294 - Alsa for h3600 and h3900
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1294

If we actually want to add alsa to h3900 we are definitely going to have
to have 2 more rcs. Maybe we can change that to one. But that means
nailing the image that has alsa in it since alsa has not been present in
any h3900 image during either 0.8.3 or 0.8.4 release cycles.

Bug 1597 - Rxvt hanging
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1597

It seems some very active developers are at odds as to whether it
happens or not. It would be nice if we could get a second opinion from
someone.

Bug 1628 - hx4700 hard keys
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1628

Phil and I have some homework to do. So does p5 it seems. But this bug
is pretty much a showstopper for hx4700 support in familiar 0.8.4. If
there isn't much movement soon we will have to drop the bug and scale
back our public support of this platform.

Bug 1643 - h2200 suspend/resume
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1643

This needs triaging. May not actually be a bug. But if it is, it is an
h2200 showstopper.

Thanks for letting me harass you regarding the familiar release.
