I don't know if 0.98 has seen enough hammering to be a recommended stable release. (Just today, Matthias Michler pointed out a pretty significant bug with widgets related to the refactoring). I think a 0.98 release that is clearly labeled as beta would not be a bad thing to get it in the hands of more people who don't track SVN.
I think a 0.91.3 release is probably also in order, since there are 23 bugfixes, most notably the wx saving bug. I think that release is important to push bugfixes out to distributions that already package 0.91.2 (e.g. Ubuntu Hardy). And as for the egg issue (which I'm completely ignorant of) -- is that something that could be fixed on 0.91.x without too much trouble? Is it something that once worked and is now broken?
