So looking back on the past three releases, they're all about 1 - 1.5
months apart (2.0.0 -> 2.0.1 -> 2.0.2/3). That seems like a reasonable
release rate right now, given the number of things in 2.0 that could use
touching up or speeding up.

Not to get too far ahead of myself, I'm thinking that we should pick about
a month's work and schedule it for 2.0.4. My speedups for ACL's and
mailboxes are in good shape (90% releasable right now) and Paul is ready
with ic_search speedups.

Barring any major new bugs, perhaps 2.0.4 will be the release of
efficiency and speedup :-)

Cool, thanks. I'm sure it would have worked, but it's bad practice in
general (and one I'd be often guilty of, too, if not for people reminding
me not to do it). Really nice work getting the SIGPIPE fixed so quickly!
I'm looking forward to a few quiet days of little bugs and new ideas on
the mailing list ;-)

Ilja, would you be interested in trying this approach? Or, at the least,
figuring out some way to only make snapshots if CVS has changed?
