About the layered lookups one thing we could consider is to commit all that we have when the branch will be created and if it's not
finished allow an exception to put more related no bug fixes commit to finish it properly.
I know it's an exception, so maybe we could rather report for a month the
branch creation (ie 10.05 instead of 10.04)

I'd suggest to:
1) officially release 9.04, announce it etc...
2) after that, create the new release candidate branch with the new layout
3) (optional, but it would be very cool) complete the layered lookups
4) as you suggest, do an announcement about great improvements in ui etc... compare 9.04 with new candidate release, add
screenshots etc...

First, if you haven't, read this discussion on the OpenTaps forums about OFBiz:

Leaving aside whether OpenTaps should continue to be based on OFBiz, one of the major undercurrents of the disucssion is that
OFBiz has user interface problems. While there continue to be usability issues I think that we have recently made a big enough
dent to do some before and after comparisons. I think we should do a major feature about this on the website with copious
screenshots you can reach in a single click. It should probably even be our leading image for the large image rotator. We should
also try to figure out how to do a press release of some kind about it and get it into ERP press.
I think Tomahawk and the recent addition of the friendly AJAX lookups can be massaged into a "OFBiz gets a major interface
overhaul" story and I think that will bring us a lot of benefit. Can I get a +1?
