My recollection is that it's quite far from being complete. I had hoped to spend some time during the 8.1 cycle helping Heikki finish it up, but if we stick to the 2-month-dev-cycle idea I'm afraid there's no way it'll be done in time. I thought that "some time" would probably amount to a solid man-month or so, and there's no way I can spend half my time on just one feature for this cycle.
If Heikki wants this in for 8.1, the right thing to do is vote against the short-dev-cycle idea. But we need a plausible answer about what to do about ARC to make that credible...
I'm not sure what I want.
If the 8.1 cycle really is a short one, say 3 months, then I have no problem waiting for 8.2. But we have a very bad track record regarding short-dev-cycles. I honestly don't believe we can get 8.1 released before July.
