Sounds great! +1 from me.

From past experience I recall we need 2-4 months between the first pre-2.4 
beta releases (maybe numbered as 2.3.x) until we really have a stable 2.4.0 
release. Maybe any of the items #2 through #5 would be ready for a stable 
release in that timeframe as well, but, as you said, this needs to be 
discussed by those people who actually know the status.
