Picasa 2.5 (build 32.91) looks ready for widespread release

The public release notes for Picasa now reference build 32.91 (dated 12th September), yet the build downloadable from the Picasa Web download link still shows build 32.71 on its about screen, and directs you to an older set of release notes.

The existence of these two parallel release notes suggests that Picasa 2.5 is about to be released from limited tests, and made available to  the public at large.

The public release note page at http://readme.picasa.com/public/ is titled "Auto Update" which further suggests that this new release may be rolling out automatically to people with earlier versions of Picasa2, though Picasa 2.5 beta users do not seem to be being automatically upgraded.

It does auto update, I saw it yesterday.

Thanks - auto updating is deliberately set so it only triggers on some machines not others, to avoid the case of millions of machines all trying to download at once.
