I'd like to see 2.59 uploaded asap.  Consider they are all official
releases now.  But I meant to avoid advertising 2.58 too much since it
has flaws that make it troublesome with Automake 1.8, while 2.59 is
OK.

But the release process at GNU has changed again, and I'm stuck with
my tarballs on my site.  I don't have enough time to learn yet another
uploading scheme, and I don't know whether Paul could make progress.

Other than that, 2.59 was released.  I'm just waiting for ftp.gnu.org
before sending the announcement to all the list, especially info-gnu.
