Open Source, volunteers everywhere with varying amounts of time - always best to avoid specifying the year :-) Which is also the point with "setting" a "deadline". I don't believe that the existance of a date, whether that's next wednesday, christmas or january 31st, would have any impact on the actual work being done in a small volunteer community. We can estimate when it'll be ready, and more help will help things happen quicker, but apart from that a deadline would just make a nice whooshing sound as it went by.
