I posted the current "official" RFC policy for 3.1 here:
viewtopic.php?f=81&t=41977#p231161
If I overlooked something or if any other clarifications regarding 3.1 are needed please let me know.
I pitched the idea of cutting hooks from 3.1 on the IRC channel but it received zero support.
So far (to my knowledge) none of people who actually contributed major features to 3.1 requested an immediate release of 3.1. Compare:
- I contributed feature X, please release it now so that I and others can use it.
- I see you have not released anything recently, and this makes me not want to contribute. If you release now I might contribute in the future.
I would like to have more frequent releases, but just like with everything else the development team just does not have enough bandwidth to release as frequently as we would like. At this time hooks (and migrations, see
viewtopic.php?f=84&t=41337&p=228807) are staying as 3.1 blockers.
For those who want to help with 3.1 being released sooner rather than later, I suggest:
