We will be releasing it as soon as it is at a packaged state. Right
now we are done with comments and integrating trackbacks; and perhaps
the neatest thing is that each blog can have a different blog type,
and each blog type can have a different display template.

So a blog about events could have extra information about dates and
locations in the headers, and a blog about music could include extra
fields about bands and genres, for example.

What this really means is that you can now have meta-content within
Mambo, where each part of the site can have content with different
fields of information associated with them.

We will announce the release, promise ;-)
