Hoi,
One technical resource lacking is time. The 1.17 code is not stable enough
for a full release. There is a lot of code that wants to go into 1.18 and
until new releases are going to appear regularly a lot of stuff will
continue to wait for it to happen. At this moment the feet of the developers
are stuck in clay and agile programming and delivery is still a dream.
With our new bugmeister we have a chance of stream lining the process but
first the back log of quite important things are waiting to happen. In the
end it is about priorities given not about how long we are waiting for
something particular.
Thanks,
GerardM
