Hi,

Just discovered and fixed a major bug with local gateway:  
[http://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/issue/409](http://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/issue/409). A fix for it  
is already in master.

We've been experimenting several failures, maybe due to this error.

I've two complete work directories that flunked, in case you want to analyse  
something.

When are are you planning to release 0.12 ? 🙂

Does this warrant a 0.11.1 release before 0.12.0?

Good questions, I am still not sure. Its either going to mean a 0.11.1  
release next week, or bump 0.12 by a week or two. I prefer not to release a  
version today, since I want to let it iron out a bit more.
