Question mostly for Jon Wage:

Is there a rough timetable for a stable release of the new
sfDoctrineGuardPlugin?

The new version has BIGINTs for IDs and incorporates email address and
full name fields in the sf_guard_user schema. We are on board with
that, but it's difficult to plan for the short and medium-term future
without a rough idea of when that might be the commonly installed
version. Right now our apps tend to have fullname and email address
fields in an sfGuardUserProfile table. And our plugins (including
apostrophePlugin), which need to be able to refer to sfGuardUser
objects via foreign keys, have 4-byte  integers for user ID fields.

MySQL generates an error if you try to add a foreign key relationship
with a different integer type so there's a compatibility issue here.

At the same time I see that the core Symfony and Doctrine teams are
working hard on Symfony 2.0 and Doctrine 2.0. So I wonder if the new
sfDoctrineGuardPlugin is to be expected any time soon, or if it might
make better sense to just skip it and require the use of the currently
stable release of sfDoctrineGuardPlugin unless and until we redo our
stuff anyway for Symfony 2.0.

Any insight welcome. Thanks!
