Given a choice, I'd rather we got 3.0 DONE.

But, I prefer to have folk hacking where they want to, on 2.5 etc than
be putting them off.

It took apache a long time to transition to a good 2.0 as well, I see
where we are as no different than that - as long as we want to have 3.0
come out eventually, and dont let it bitrot, we should make it
eventually.
