Hi John,

It sounds like some of the errors you found that others couldn't 
reproduce were problems only seen in the debug version.

In particular, there are a series of "empty trash" related bugs that 
we've seen both on Linux and XP, only in the debug version:

Bug 10739: Unsubscribed PreviewCountdown collection, Emptied Trash - 
line 202, in GetElementValue, assert False, AssertionError
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10739

Bug 10720: AssertionError when emptying Trash of OOTB items
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10720

Bug 10652: RC1 Linux: index error on empty trash
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10652

As you have pointed out, problems found only in the debug version can be 
hints of something being wrong in general. That said, we haven't seen 
problems for these scenarios in the release version, so the bug council 
is not blocking the release for these bugs. We have targeted them for 
0.7.1; it is worth following up on these and fixing the problem.

Cheers,
Katie
