API freeze status

[Havoc Pennington <hp redhat com>]

Hi,

Your friendly status report on the API freeze. There are 42 open
API-affecting bugs blocking the freeze. Some of these are actually
"enhancement" bugs and we've already decided to punt the feature, but,
mostly they are real blockers.

We've closed 23 API-affecting bugs since we started using Bugzilla to
track things.

If you notice any bugs that should be in here and aren't, please put
them in Bugzilla and add the 'API' keyword.

Havoc
