I realize that github has additional benefits. But I'd rather have
it all in one place, since I have my own server, anyway.

Do you want an RSS feed of the commits?

There are no open bug reports. So it's already stabilizing. LJ2
doesn't yet have the feature coverage I have envisioned for the
non-beta version. Work on feature completeness and the x64 port
will be performed in parallel. Right now the x64 port needs to
catch up a bit (a gross understatement).

Beta2 + hotfix#2 has all the 'fixes'. The development version has
new minor 'features'. Now that the git repo is in place, my plan
is to release new betas only for major fixes or major features.
