2.1 is a branch - so innovation shouldn't really happen there. Trunk I don't understand, and is too unstable (not a negative, just a fact[1]) for me to find time to understand it. So I don't see quite what I could work on. And I suspect the case is the same for others too. Upayavira [1] Some people have time and resources to give to working with that level of instability. Others need something relatively stable to work on incrementally within their work. I see no problem with either approach, I just want us to bring the latter back into play in our community.
