I'd like to see the project go forward in an organized way (i.e. "no fork"), but I'm concerned about the lack of progress also. I've simply set aside all my activity on it, and it'll take some overhead to get back up to speed after several months of inaction.

The argument for waiting for Kent's 2.0b4 was that it was "imminent" and addressed many of the outstanding issues. If it doesn't actually show up, it doesn't matter how good it is!

Action is needed.
