Actually, we might look into getting a faster development time useing theories 
learned from the Linux kernel development and outlined in 'The Cathedral and 
the Bazaar.'  This does not meen poor-quality code by any means; in fact it 
meens better code because there are more people grocking over it.

But we can't do this with only two main developers.  I suggest we put a major 
call-out for new developers as soon as 0.3 reaches a stable state and certain 
docs are updated.  Give them time to get used to the existing code.  From then 
on, release new developer releases (numbered 0.3.1, 0.3.2, etc.) until you get 
0.4 in a stable state.  Make these developer relases come out as fast as 
possible--once a day, if you can.  This should lead to much faster devel time 
with higher quality code.
