[pubcookie-dev] Re: proposed items for pubcookie 3.3.0

[Nathan Dors]

I've made an initial pass thru the documentation, probably good 
enough for a beta release.

We're feeling a bit of pressure here to release some of the 3.3 
improvements (most notably the mods related to pre-session cookie 
handling). So what's the status of some of the other in-progress 
items below? Jon, Bradley...?

Meanwhile I'm going to look at those inheritance issues in the 
filter.
