If you take a look on the forum there has been quite a lot of discussion, ck would seem to think and probably rightly that 1.0 will not be out before the year is over, so it could be that alpha 7 pops up at some point but beta is a way of I would assume as they have made quite slow progress because only 1/2 of them are working on it however I believe another person has returned from the wordpress camp to help out.

I am sure ck will chime in soon enough!
