I don't have a schedule for OSG-2.10 yet. My current focus is getting VPB-1.0 completed, once that is out I'll turn my attention to OSG-2.10. In terms of features in 2.10, the ffmpeg plugin has great promise but isn't complete yet, and I'd like to get that working as well as the quicktime + xine plugins for 2.10 so we can contemplate deprecating these. Other features that will make it into 2.10 will depend upon the what the community will bring forward. Personally I would recommend that users move to each stable point releases as they come out, rather than skip ones as this will minimize the chances of API changes in the OSG breaking builds. So in this instance 2.8.1 has to be the one to go for. Going from 2.6.1 to 2.8.1 should be pretty painless, little more than a recompile of the OSG and the 3rd party application. > With SIGGRAPH just over 2 months away, I thought you might be targeting a > release prior to SIGGRAPH.

Getting 2.10 out the door in time for SIGGRAPH should be doable, and is certainly a good goal to aim for. Perhaps aim for VPB-1.0 mid June, OSG-2.10 mid July.
