No, the only thing that's going to get Pidgin 3 out faster is more
people fixing all of the rough edges.  I've been systematically going
through the code base and cleaning up every single thing I can.  I
have 2 pull requests that still need more reviews, and I have 4 more
that I'm working on right now.  Al of that and I haven't even tried to
tackle some of the bugs I keep hitting.

I think the biggest problem is that people are not dog fooding Pidgin.
It's easy to just use the 2.x.y release and forget about 3.0.
However, I use 3.0 every day, and I can't even tackle the bugs I'm
finding because of other problems that are buried in the library.

Long story short, we need to move faster, need more cooks, and of
course, more hours in a day.
