I'm not questioning this. I'm questing wether we still should bring new shit in. The number of bugs we found recently is scary, and the new shit needs serious testing. And adding _more_ features is for sure not helpfull. Obviously you missed the relevant discussion. > > well then let's look at it post-3.3.
