Is there something in particular about the forthcoming 8.0 that you would
want done differently from how it currently is being done? Considering
Bastien's
current plan is to push towards releasing it in the near future.

The tone in this bit, classifying readers of the list either as principals
(I'm assuming
this would be Bastien and others who are highly active in maintaining and
updating
Org) or riff-raff (meaning the rest of the user base?) is hardly endearing.
I appreciate the org-odt exporter, I haven't had much use for it but what I
have had to
use it for it worked perfectly. However your attitude in the past has
often struck me as
abrasive or argumentative when there was little to no reason for it.
Either there's some
underlying reason for your apparent dislike for Bastien and his approach to
maintaining
Org, or some argument in the past that I am not aware of.
Regardless, Bastien is doing a fine job from what I can see, he is
certainly actively assisting
users who post with questions or bugs, even when they occurred during a
time where he was
absent (with prior notice). Perhaps he has not contributed to certain
aspects as others have,
however his presence and monitoring of the smaller aspects does allow for
further development
to proceed without being interrupted by every issue.
Regards,
Jon
