The pace of development at the moment is very, very slow. The unstable
release is moving at the speed of most projects' stable releases, because
nobody working on it has the time to do major development. (I include
myself in this to some extent. I don't have hg commit privs largely
because I, sigh, wouldn't have the time to do anything with them. I need
some way to double the number of hours in the day, or perhaps triple
them...)
But it works, and is revivable if someone steps up to the plate *looks at
self guiltily*
