Twenty downloads isn't very many, but please hold off distributing 
anything with the new GUI if that is what's in question.  We are aware 
it is unstable and is being reshaped at a fast pace and consequently has 
many bugs.  My worry is that we start getting a flood of bug reports on 
problems that we are finding ourselves on a daily basis.
