Trying to get the SC to hand down a 4.0 decision now will cause tension,
fights, disagreement, plagues, etc. Why not work together to create a
release that we can agree is worthy of the name 4.0? Why does it have to
be forced through now?
Because the difference between the next release and this one will be *far*
less than between 3.4 and this one. If people didn't feel this level of
changes merited "4.0", the next level certainly wouldn't.
