Ok - i'm good with an 0.7 release too and think it is a good idea.  I
am happy to RM the release.

I'd like to select a date at which we're happy to call the 0.x line
then feature complete which means 0.7 would be the last feature
bearing 0.x release and from then on it would be bug fixes only
consistent withe support model.  To do that I think we should feel
reasonably confident that the 1.x release is close.  So let's say we
did an 0.7 release early June - say first week of June.  I'd like us
to say then that 1.x is targeted to early July.

If this seems like a reasonable path I'll start filling out the
tragically never updated roadmap wiki page [1] with the 0.7 target,
1.x target, and put some placeholder/tentatives for the 1.1 and beyond
targets.  Will wait for additional inputs.
