I'd like to see a release asap too, I think we're mostly ready.

I'd like to wait for 0.6.0 though, 0.5.2 being a dev release.
Considering the xcb stuff that won't be in 0.6.0 it seems to me that
0.6.0 will be ready soon enough.

But that's no reason for us not to prepare this of course.

I have one issue though; the wrapper script.

I'd like to move my compiz-manager script into a more central/official
repo and get proper feedback without getting 20 different forks of it
(it's a pain, to be honest, to be sent a rewrite of your own code
instead of ideas on how to improve it or patches). Any objections
against this?

Also, I think it makes sense to use a version number independent of
Compiz, to signify that we are not the same thing. Stuff like ccs and
most of these new plugins  are, well, new, and since these bits are
what Compiz Fusion really is, it makes sense to me to use a different
version range.

Regards,
Kristian
