I hear you! And in fact... In general, new features should not be added to a 'Release Candidate'. But the argument being made by the people that will be supporting the new 'Stable' branch is they want things (and especially the code) cleaned up before it goes 'Stable' because they will have to live with it for a long time.

So, while I'm philosophically opposed to adding new code or even changing code that is working in a 'Release Candidate', I do see their point. The good news is these people are starting to feel good enough about the current code base I think Christmas is a definite possibility.
