Hi Javier, I made the last two tags so i can give you some context. The RC2 and RC3 failed for license issues in java and versioning in JS. I have fixed both of those. However, in the days after I started a couple of people wanted a few code pieces merged. I had stopped that since I was working on a release and that would cause continuous churn. I am giving people time to merge any code in before I start back. I intend to make another release in the next few days. I can say I will try to make sure it is not paused.
Regarding when will this be released. I can't give you a definite date. I try to make an hour or so a day for open source work and sometimes I am not able to do the same. Also, it needs community help to pass an RC too. All I can say is soon. Hope that helps.
