Bad Idea. No translations in place, for one thing. Secondly, unlike
panel plugins, it is a non-trivial piece of software that needs to be
widely tested before we can put it in a release.

Basically, I don't think that anything that isn't in the BETAs should be
in the release. We really dont want a buggy release.

Why don't we target it for 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 ? That is, mid-August?

On a related note, I was wondering if after the 4.0 release we should
have separate release cycles for the each of the components? Then Benny
could make a BETA whenever he wants and release when he thinks it's
ready.

This would also reduce the workload on Olivier and push new features out
faster.

The 4.2 release would then just be a decision by Olivier that we have
enough new stuff out that we can up the version numbers to 4.2
