I think the consensus is to release 0.10, and do another release  
shortly afterwards to get Win32 native perfect.

Work to be done before:

* Work out what's up with Solaris

* Test SSL keep-alives and diff timer -- do we know they actually  
work? (There is some uncertainty from the Win32 platform, but maybe  
that's because the timer is done in a different way.)

* Review and merge the latest Win32 changes

* Decide whether the Win32 client might need anything else from the  
server -- it would be good for 0.11 clients not to need an upgrade on  
the server from 0.10.

* Test on all "supported" platforms, sign off release
