I find this -really- disturbing.

What are the stuff that have been "incrementally added" since the 2.0 
"rc1"??

There _has never been a 2.0 release_, and now the new release will be 
named 2.1??? This is really really silly - how will this be explained on a 
timeline and "history of WebMacro" pages, and what is the consistent 
explaination to the users?
  What-ever- the additions since the rc1, the new MAJOR versjon 2.0 should 
NOT be skipped. Going from one minor version, to a new minor version that 
have a higher -major- version is just NOT GOOD.

Can someone with their repos set up properly (I can't seem to update my 
anon copy anymore?!) do a diff between the rc1 and HEAD, please? Then 
we'll see whether this talk about "major changes" holds water.

Regards,
Endre.
