We have all these great bug fixes ready to go, maybe they should be released as such with as few functional changes as possible. 2. This disrupts the roadmap (http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/Roadmap). I know I haven't finished my chunk of the 2.1 milestone, but I've also made a lot of progress since 2.0.2. How about others? Neither of these reasons are huge, but are worth weighing. Thanks, Jason
