I think it would be good to do a second(/final) beta for 0.10 and keep the process moving, hopefully then being able to spin an RC early next week.
One of the previous blockers has been reverted and bumped to 0.11 due to various issues with the earlier change. The other has had some work done for it and may or may not be complete, one good way to tell would be to get folks to kick the tyres on it. There are currently 4 unresolved JIRAs assigned a 0.10 fix-for: http://s.apache.org/ytK Robbie
