Hmm... this brings up an interesting point.  Whit has repeatedly
commented that just because we're having .5 and .0 releases (with
different focuses for each) doesn't mean we can't have a .1 (or .2
or .3, etc) as well.

For the sake of getting the SoC results in a place where Plone can use
it (perhaps in core? perhaps for marketing?) why not tentatively plan a
3.1 release that focuses (but not necessarilly limited or restrained to)
on the SoC achievements ?

Plone 3.1 -- the google release :)

- Rocky

ps. I'm only throwing this out there without thinking through all of the
repercussions for discussion purposes ... like how does this affect our
(hopeful) 6 month release cycle?  how does this affect trying to match
up with zope releases? etc
