Last call for 3.0.0

[Jason Evans]

I'm doing a final round of testing in preparation for the 3.0.0 release, which I'm hoping to tag in the next 24-36 hours, assuming no stability issues are uncovered.  My testing coverage is best on Linux and FreeBSD; OS X is minimal, and I don't even have a Windows system.  If there are issues that need to be addressed before the release, please let me know ASAP.

Thanks,
Jason
