I agree.

That depends. Off hand I think there is at least another two weeks of 
work needed on it. Maybe four.

I'm not going to have a lot of time to work on it between now and the 
end of the year (got to work to pay the bills), but there's a chance 
that things may pull together in time for a Christmas release. More 
realistically we are probably talking about mid- to late January.

There are at least two major things that need to be worked out:

   1. Activation and deactivation of extensions within the admin UI

   2. The scripts to manage the upgrade from 0.5.2

The first is probably something I am going to need to work out on my 
own. The second is something that I would love help with.

Also, the more people that can jump on board and start using the code in 
the mental branch the better. This is a major upgrade and your comments 
and feedback are vital.
