A point release (e.g. 2.0.1) would generally be released with fixes for major bugs that prevent the day-to-day operation of the shell and cannot be worked around. It would generally be released without any new features. There haven't been any of these show-stopper bugs, and development continues apace with a 2.1.0 release not far off. This release will contain fixes for many bugs and some new features. There is almost no software that is bug free, but you can take the lack of release of 2.0.1 that we are pretty happy with the degree of bugginess in 2.0.0.
