This is fine -- just open a new branch.  I didn't necessarily mean add
new features to the stable production code.  I just think it needs a
lot of people to bang on it the way they use/abuse it daily to find
and fix whats in all the new code now.

And I would suggest that the next branch, as new features are
introduced and beta testers find it usable, is released more
frequently -- once with each new feature.  That provides you a couple
of benefits:
1.  users (the community) see active, ongoing development and can
provide more/better feedback
2.  makes debugging (especially code that affects other areas) easier

Besides, a lot of the new features are really nice.  Kudos to all the
developers.

Above opinions are just mine and worth what you paid for them.
