If postgis-ng is the line that divides alpha from beta I would say let's 
keep postgis-ng in unsupported/incubation for a while longer. I know I 
just voiced a +1 for switching all to jdbc-ng but I think postgis is a 
special case due to the care and maintainence it has received over the 
years. While the performance issues can be addressed in the short term 
it will take us more than a few months imo to catch all the special 
cases that the current one does. I fear that if we put postgis-ng on the 
critical path to a beta release then we should not expect that beta any 
time soon.
