I'm not a friend of release early, release often. If people need orgastic versions-numbers they should switch to emacs (I've heard it's cappable of washing the dishes or taking a shower for you, too) Well… I've made up my mind a bit for the roadmap to 3.0… It's not yet finished (enough) to be proposed, but well 1.7x is planed.
