Yes, we need a freeze commitment for all of Bonobo for the 1.4
release, as incompatible changes will not be possible for 1.4.x. We
can change the library freeze date (and thus push out the whole 1.4
release) if the current one is not feasible.

We may have to push it out a few days anyway, based on talking to
people with outstanding gnome-vfs work around Eazel.
