Wonderful to hear. You're right, it hasn't escaped into the wild. We could use more hands.
The two things that are blocking a 1.4 release that contains the staging functionality are: - deciding on a default production metadata storage (we have a file-backed implementation and a JCR-backed implementation) - MRM-1327 - testing and fixing up any bugs that have arrived due to refactoring since the last release (several of these are in JIRA for 1.4-M1, though we could probably stand to trim that list further) With regard to the staging functionality in particular, I've started some work to improve it, but I need to commit it once I can get past all the merge conflicts with Olivier's recent work :) That was mostly to apply the improvements after the initial GSoC implementation, particularly to avoid them being "full" repositories that has caused us a few problems with search & metadata.
