[OpenLayers-Dev] 2.9a release?

[Marc Jansen]

Hi devs,

Although I don't have the right to vote on this, I would really 
appreciate a point-release 2.9.1 with the mentioned fixes. Maybe we 
should wait another week or so to see if other regressions show up.

Regards (and thanks for all the nice work),

Marc
