That's correct. I think at least some portion of it should be merged to the main line, and branched as a release build.
The problem is, __even__ if anyone would want to fix issues for the 0.8, they would hesitate to branch out from Nathan's branch because, they don't know which portion of it would be accepted, and which one's rejected. Get my point? Maybe if we have at least some intermediate __stable__ release from Nathan's branch, we can get some kind of assurance that "OK...all this portion is already accepted, and I don't have to worry about all these part, I can concentrate on __this__ portion to __this__ portion" This kind a intermediate release would definitely help by making people focus on less tasks and fixing bugs more effectively.
