An 0.9 release is not intended to attract users, it's intended to deal with the fact that it already *has* users, and should have been officially released a long time ago. I'm not planning to make a big deal of it, a quiet mention on the user list and a link at the bottom of the download page is plenty. Personally, I have this code in production and would like to see this line of development nicely wrapped up rather than just abandoned.
I also use this codebase for my corporate job and will contribute to maintain supported features in future releases. I just don't understand why a "0.9" release would change about the trunk code to be maintained or not. Do you just mean that having a (pre)release would make the supported features included in the roadmap ? We still have to re-code them in the branch-code. --
