I want to report that Foursquare deployed 1.2.1rc0 to all of engineering on the 12/21.

This release is working quite well for us so far. It has fixes for the issues that made us

unable to consume 1.2.0.

I found a couple issues that I would like to fix for the unstable dev releases, and at

least one UX commit that I intend to backport to 1.2.1rc1.

But overall, we are VERY pleased with the 1.2.1rc!

Thanks to Stu for getting that release out for us right before the holidays and to 

Twitter in general for all the work they have been putting into Pants.

Pants is becoming nicely stable, you have been doing very good work :)
