Hi guys,

It's time to temporarily switch your mind from progressive mode to conservative mode,
as the 5.2.0 release is coming closer:

We're estimating the next branch date (for M2) on Sunday 20-MAR-2011.
On that date the M2 release branch will copied from master and any new commits won't make the M2 release,
unless they are manually merged to the release branch.
The release itself will follow a few days (or more) after that M2 release branch is thoroughly tested.

So try to get all your bugfixes in master before that date.
And try to get your current experimental and unstable features stable by then.
And try to wait with adding new experimental and unstable improvements/feature until after that date
(unless you still have the time to get them stable).
