@Martin & Erik:
When reading this thread, I'm wondering how you will merge all these
changes to the game engine into 2.0.
Perhaps I'm missing some important information here, but as far as I
know, all changes to game engine will be dropped when migrating to
2.0.

@Stefan:
Wouldn't it make sense if master was merged right now into 2.0 and,
from that point in time on, everyone who changes master is responsible
for also keeping 2.0 up-to-date? (still keeping two separate branches,
of course, for retaining a working version )
That would have the benefit that everyone can directly perceive
whether his changes will be valid in 2.0 (and, if not, how to adjust).
If only merging once 2.0 is ready, we will have to deal with
incompatible commits that were performed several months ago the
content/interdependencies of which have long been forgotten...
At least for me, I would prefer double-maintenance now to that
situation in the near future.
