I view this as a damn good reason to postpone a 0.9 or 1.0 release
indefinitely. There is a *lot* of cool stuff going on in the tree now, and
I'm inclined to let it all keep happening (and make as much as possible
happen as I can).

A hurried 1.0 does not mean a good product... To quote the SG motto - "1.0
isn't the end, it's the beginning." But I'd rather have a 1.0 with much more
than they (or even we) had anticipated, and I think that our users would
agree. 1.0 by year's end would be a good timeframe, IMNSHO.

To that effect, I'd be more than happy to release a 0.8.0 in another few
weeks and begin a new development series - "0.8.0 - the road to 0.9.0". I
don't like our current numbering scheme at all.

Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Dom
