  Since (except for the window binaries), I seem to the be sole releaser, on my 
wishlist would be more people willing to make releases.

  That said, it probably is about time for another 1.x release, even though not 
a huge amount of stuff has changed, but just to get it out there.  And putting 
out a 2.x client is probably reasonable.

  Save for having other people do releases, next on my wish list would be for 
people to periodically try the release process (make archive from the top level 
dir - same place you run configure).  If everything 'works', doing a release 
isn't that time consuming.

  But often, things don't work, and it then takes a considerable amount of time 
to track down the problems.  Most common is new files getting added to SVN, but 
not the actual makefiles (things like header files, but could also be config 
files).
