Hi Ken,

Thanks for testing the new code.  We'd like some more people to test
this (esp. on Win32 and OS X) so we can get better coverage before the
release.  There are no known bugs in the CVS version, but you should
probably not use this code in production yet.

Speaking of which, we're planning on releasing the next version of
OpenEXR, with support for multithreaded reading and writing, sometime
around the first of December.
