It's starting to look like we'll pull 5 off this year to me.  I.e.:

  Feb 2004 - 2004.0
  Apr 2004 - 2004.1
  Jul 2004 - 2004.2
~Oct 2004 - 2004.3
~Dec 2004 - 2004.4
~Feb 2005 - 2005.0


I dunno, maybe instead of a July target for 2004.2, we can aim for late 
August.  Gives several months to get some new features integrated and 
tested.  While I forsee emerge --security getting integrated beforehand, 
testing wil another thing, because the best test of a fewture like that 
is after several live GLSA's go out.

I'd also like the whole summer to play around with some new mips stuff, 
i.e., liveCDs (SGI's are a PITA to make a bootable CD for, no iso9660). 
  I didn't have alot of time during 2004.0 and 2004.1 because I was 
usually messing with class stuff (although I more or less shoved that 
off to the side during April for no reason).

Assume a late Aug date

  Feb 2004 - 2004.0
  Apr 2004 - 2004.1
  Aug 2004 - 2004.2
  Nov 2004 - 2004.3
~Jan 2005 - 2005.0
