I think, this describes quite well the current where we stand currently 
regarding inclusion of Rainbow. I think it is an interesting part to 
tackle for 0.86. This release cycle was, in terms of changing resources 
and environment conditions, even worse than the last one. I guess, it 
can always get worse ;D So there was only so much we could do - and many 
things that fell of the plate.

Anyhow, let's try to look forward - and see what we can do for 0.86.

Thanks,
