Right, we have a processes in place [1] [2] [3] and those help us to make our work possible. We can not discuss each ticket, enhancement, Feature again and again and create a new strategy each time. There are people following those processes, so it can't be a that hard thing to do. If you have a look at our schedule [4], you will understand in which phase we are in. Back to work, as I have to release modules, write release notes, make sure the testers have an image to work on, etc. I might even look at the new patch that Aleksey has submitted to #1447 because he seems to care about it. Michael, If you have free cycles I am sure you will find a place to contribute to the 0.88 Release and help to make it a successful Sugar Release.
