[Omake] Should we release 0.9.8.1 before any of the "jumbo patches" are integrated.

[Jason Hickey]

I think the efforts are pretty independent.  The way I have it set  
up, it is pretty easy to integrate new stuff from the trunk with git  
(certainly much easier than with svn).

The hashnode stuff also pretty simple, but I don't have a strong  
opinion about 1 vs. 2 releases.  However, it may make some sense to  
differentiate between bug-fix vs. feature releases (I guess I would  
call hashnode a "feature" release).  Most all the jumbo patches  
afterwards are new features.

I assume any such release would probably also include the readline  
updates.
