The 0.9.0 release has been dragging on forever as I try to get the
replication security stuff working. Unfortunately I've stalled out on it
and I'm not sure when I'll be able to finish it to production quality.
Could be a week, could be a month. I've been feeling likes its only a
week away for about a month now, and I keep getting pulled into other
stuff and its hard to get back on track. It's pretty involved stuff, so
its not like someone can just take of with it and finish it in a
reasonable amount of time, but anyone iswelcome to try
(branches/rep_security).
So I'm wondering if we should just forget it for 0.9.0 and release it
without. It won't be beta yet and the security stuff useless as it is
now now, but all the other stuff that's in 0.9 will still be there.
Thoughts please.

From my "driver developer" point of view, the prolonged preparation for
0.9 is a bit of a inconvenience. As it is I stopped doing releases for
now to keep the old release 0.8.1 compatible and only commit fixes for
0.9 into trunk for now.
I would welcome an early 0.9 release -- and seeing all those issues of
people trying to use 0.9 features in 0.8.1 seems to show that I am not
the only one.
