I concur with Ulf.

Agreed. Maybe we should also propose a "last call" for filing bugs
against the release candidate.

Agreed.
While we're at it, I uninstalled 0.10.5 and installed 0.10.6 release
candidate, and the only warnings I got, are harmless and already hint
the end-user what they should do:
** (ethereal.exe:1440): WARNING **: C:\Documents and
Settings\Eigenaar\Application Data\Ethereal\preferences line 182: No
such preference "asn1.tcp_port" (saving your preferences once should
remove this warning)
** (ethereal.exe:1440): WARNING **: C:\Documents and
Settings\Eigenaar\Application Data\Ethereal\preferences line 186: No
such preference "asn1.udp_port" (saving your preferences once should
remove this warning)
** (ethereal.exe:1440): WARNING **: C:\Documents and
Settings\Eigenaar\Application Data\Ethereal\preferences line 219: No
such preference "asn1.message_win" (saving your preferences once
should remove this warning)
