Re: [ros-dev] Freeze the trunk and release

0.3.0 needs to have a "Spit 'n' Polished" look. Users don't see

underneath, they see what's on top, i.e. the UI elements. Having a
Default Wallpaper wouldn't be too bad of a start on this.

The Trunk needs a massive Bug-Hunt, at the moment. I installed r19899,
and I could see several glaring discrepencies that a user would pick
up on.
