Hey all,

This past week unfortunately wasn't super eventful.  I did some final dead code elimination on my m2m-refactor branch, I was able to kill about 150 additional lines of code that no longer needed, there are a few small changes I need to make to remove some quadratic behavior that occurs during syncdb, but that's not a huge deal since it's not during code execution time.  Other then that I got some initial docs work done, you can see what I've committed, but I have some further work locally that is still mostly in outline form.  I'll hopefully be turning that into real english in the next 2 or 3 days.  Hopefully 1.1 will come soon so that Russ and I can look at getting the m2m stuff merge ready.  Other than that the next work is going to be determining what the right backwards compatibility policy is for the get_db_prep_* methods on Fields.  They need to be given an extra parameter to be multi-db compatible, but that would break any existing custom fields.  It may just be that I need to write a little bit of introspection code, but we'll have to see.

That's all for this week.  As always if there are any questions, suggestions, flames, lavish gifts, nobel prizes, etc. don't hesitate to bring it up,
Alex
