It's just that I think feature-based releases is a never-ending story. The current feature set hasn't moved too much for a while, so it would be good to make a release out of it, and as soon as 0.9.34-rc1 is out, re-open the tree to merge more features: stabilization of 0.9.34 and integration of additional features for 0.9.35 can take place in parallel.
