Watch out your teeth!

The new Sucrose[1] 0.81.1 Development Release is out!

This release has the following news and instructions to test the release in 
sugar-jhbuild: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sucrose_0.81.1 You can find the news as 
well at the end of this email. We skipped pippy and the log activity since the code 
had difficulties on non XO platforms. We have fixes already so they will be ready 
in the next release.

If your feature missed that train, don't be sad the next cycle is already on in two 
weeks http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Roadmap#Timeline

Thanks to everyone who made this release possible!

In behalf of the sugar community,
    Your release team
