Um, maybe he's pointing out that we need to take this a little less seriously and relax.
We have a lot of NG options already.
I, for one, don't want to wear down the developers with too many more requests.

Look what we have gotten recently.
A slew of new video drivers.
A new port to the SAM460.
And, hopefully soon, a new port to the X5000.

If this was a commercial venture I'd be trying to get these guys to take a vacation to avoid burning out, not asking things like "when are we going to do 'x'".
