Freevo 1.x is still being developed, mainly because 2.0 takes longer than expected. The Freevo project stays alive this way. We don't need 1.x to be set on hold because of streamlining activities. The odds for a good architecture are set to Freevo 2.0. In my opinion it is better to add functionality to Freevo 1.x. Improvements are fine, but stay away from the global optimizations with huge impact.
