Hi Devrim,

Did you see the list of tickets that Paul posted? These were the ones 
that we decided should be resolved for 1.5.2 before pushing out a 
release. Note we need to do a status update on these - I know I myself 
have not had a chance to commit fixes for a couple of my tickets. We 
then also need to do some testing across various platforms.

In terms of the delay, the 9.0 release timing is really bad for GIS 
people. Pretty much everyone has been busy preparing for FOSS4G over the 
past month or so, the conference itself was last week, and now we all 
caught up in the aftermath...


ATB,

Mark.
