  Don't think so. Yes, we will have things breaking backwards
compatibility but we should put enough effort to reduce the
number of incompatibilities to a minimum. We have to think
about the numerous users out there and the projects depending
on velocity. "Old" templates should work with little unavoidable
changes (rare cases dealing with floats for instance).

  Improvement: Yes. Enhanced featureset: Yes. But no new product.
Especially, I would not fiddle around with the current whitespace-
handling (though it is inconsistent in some cases...) . I'd rather 
introduce some kind of filter-mechanism like a BodyTag in JSP 
(repeating myself, eh? :)

  BTW: "We" always means all the developers that will contribute
to the current and next version.

  Geir, after putting 1.3.1 together, it would be great to create
a feature list and to put priorities on it. Has anybody any idea
how to organize this process? I mean, everybody has dozens of ideas
in his / her head and I tend to think that we won't manage to get
a solid feature-list / development plan while discussing over 
several mailinglist-threads. And in the end we would need a process
that results in decissions (some kind of voting or (worst case :)
Geir says what's on the list and what's not - kidding!).
