+1. Features should be added because they are useful & desirable. Features should be released when they are ready & stable. Our primary concerns for what changes go into each (semanticly) versioned release should be based on stability, back compatability, and forward compatibility -- not what kinds of headlines they will generate. -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
