I think the wider community will be OK, as long as we stay calm about not getting overwhelmed with the number change, and just doing an ordinary release. I can't see us losing many users if they pick up 2.0 and don't see lots of new features, at least, that's never worried me in other people's releases. In any case, I think we're committed to the 2.0 version number at this point.
