[Dx4win] Next release

[Mel]

Studies have shown that changes late in a Project can cost 10 times or 
even 100 times more in effort than when part of the original design. 
Probably best to freeze the feature set. There can always be point 
releases if something particularly interesting is suggested.

Just the features mentioned so-far make the new release very interesting.
