Hi Joshua,

We are still developing new features for our users, especially new
features from consulting projects. We are just too busy to integrate
all of them to the open source branch. If you look at our feature
list, you will find that we are the first to develop the ARM Linux
port, the cgroups integration, and OGS/GE is the first larger
10,000-node cluster in Amazon EC2.

Do you have any specific features that you need right now? If so, we
can integrate them first and create a release. If not, then we will
release a new release with some of the features that we are developing
(can't announce them yet - since they will be part of a greater
product of ScalableLogic that is still under NDA).

Rayson
