Although it feels good to do a release (and I'm sure its presence
would be appreciated on the 0.8 ISO's, although we all know this
really isn't as big of a deal as people make it out to be), should we
just instead get pacman into the form we will be happy with for a
major version number release? We can mark something soon in CVS as
"stable", and if people are really looking for an upgrade, then they
can go there. We could even through it in the unstable repo if demand
was high.

Just putting my two cents out there, be interesting to see what other
people think about postponing release.
