Even,

I think that 2.0 could be kept for breaking changes, and that if we aren't
going to accomplish those big projects we should just aim for a 1.11
release.

I think the above could potentially justify a 2.0 release.  I think a
change to github or cmake do not because they don't affect applications
using GDAL.
