My recollection is that it's quite far from being complete. I had hoped
to spend some time during the 8.1 cycle helping Heikki finish it up,
but if we stick to the 2-month-dev-cycle idea I'm afraid there's no way
it'll be done in time. I thought that "some time" would probably amount
to a solid man-month or so, and there's no way I can spend half my time
on just one feature for this cycle.
If Heikki wants this in for 8.1, the right thing to do is vote against
the short-dev-cycle idea. But we need a plausible answer about what to
do about ARC to make that credible...
