Sure. But we have to draw a line somewhere, otherwise we'll never
release.

Well, stagnating is part of the release cycle. As I said: draw a line somewhere
and stagnate on that level for some weeks. Not too long of course, but long enough
to get a real overview how good it is. Currently it's more like "oh, you're using
16h hour old code, you better update."
