I am not worried *at all* about the actual coding quality, just that
big parts of it (from the users' perspective) still seem be in flux.
(ie the name, how to start it, how to build it)

Will we see dozens of "why doesn't vdigit compile?" questions unless
trac #38 is done?

Sure, I think that two of the three primary goals for 6.3.x will be
widespread beta testing of the wxGUI and the native MS-windows build.
The third goal would be to get all the new features since 6.2.0 out to
the hungry masses for testing.
