And in case you don't know, we keep track of the features we're working on in our roadmap wiki page [1], so we shouldn't be surprised by the things that end up being merged into Aurora, whether they're ready or not. If you're working on a feature that's more than a small bug fix, you should make sure it's listed in the roadmap, so that it's easier for everyone to track the big changes happening in our product. Jenn maintains this wiki page, so you should talk to her if you notice something that's missing.
