Well, if you want a page that says "Release: maybe October-ish???" we
could do that, but I'm really dubious about the value. ISTM that if you
follow -hackers you will have a feeling for how beta is going, and if
you don't then you won't. No summary webpage is going to give you
insight that the people doing the work don't have themselves.

Nearest month is far more specific than I care to be at the moment.
I would give good odds that 8.0 will be released before the end of the
year, but I'd not write down a month yet. In another month, if beta
seems to be going well, I would be ready to get more specific.
