I'd like to know what pg is thinking. Even a tiny bit of communication would go along way, but he seems to have leftthebuilding.
If he wants to take 6 months or a year to release the next version, that's fine, but it would be nice to have some indication of a plan regardless of how informal.
Maybe you should send him an e-mail and ask him explicitly. He doesn't seem to come here these days anyway... I hope that's not because he's horrified by what we did to his baby :)
