I think that you are somehow in the same position as Linus Torvalds.
The kernel development is also too long because of the featurism,...

But I think good things do take a while and throwing out releases too
often makes it moving a little too fast. When you'll be releasing 0.6
a lot of people have to learn how to use the new features, which will
take it's time. And a release also will take more time from us to do
the mailinglist support.

For me it looks as if we are getting too broad as from where we started.
Devil-Linux nowadays does lot's more than just simple firewalls. I
know this is cool, but can we manage it in the future? Basically I
want to put up the question where are we heading too?

So much from my side. Now I'd like all others to choin in.
