Pick a date for a freeze. Better yet, pick a date for a feature freeze,
then spend two weeks fixing bugs for a final freeze that gets released to
anyone waiting to do a merge back to the 2.0.x series. And then resume
development.

As for dates: maybe the first Monday of March for the feature freeze,
with a "final" freeze on the third Monday of March? I'm not demanding a
freeze, I'm just throwing out dates to get people thinking about a
timeline... Feel free to tell me to butt out.

Y'all are doing absolutely stellar work... keep it up!
