Last night I merged pingou's work to port to TG2 into MM mainline (on top of what is currently 1.3.7). I'm hoping to find time this week to go through the ~100 patches that are on the 1.4 branch, and port those conceptual changes to mainline on TG2. Then the testing begins in earnest - it's a good bit of code change. Then we talk about packaging for EPEL etc. For expediency here, CentOS should start with MM 1.3.x as-is; tell me what works well for you, what other features you uncover you need to really consider MM, and we'll go from there.
