1.8 and onwards should be stable without much progressive stuff,
2.0 is where all the features will come in.
Here's my list for 2.0:
- EDD support (relatively trivial)
- support for setting CHS manually (parted)
- testing framework
- '-l' switch (cf. 'fdisk -l')
- support for machine-readable output
- partition table guessing (aka gpart integration)
- integration of external tools and removal of old cruft like the
ext2 resizing code (FAT support will probably remain intrinsic)
- util.[hc] with the stuff from parted.c
The testing framework might be moved to the stable branch, however.

Depends on the bugs in 1.8 and the incoming fixes. I expect more stable
releases until the first 2.0 release candidate is ready.
