Yes, I reminded people (using multiprocessing as an example, which I agree was probably not a fair parallel) that ignoring process can have negative consequences, but I do agree with you about the desirability of not having to wait for 3.3.

Gentlemen. It was disappointing to see serious ideas about pushing 
feature commits after the beta (and even during the RC phase) or 
sneaking in controversial changes in respect to the moratorium. All 
these risky suggestions came from the fact that we are afraid to miss a 
release and be forced to wait another year or two. Maybe let's eat the 
cake and have it too. We could do that by shortening the release cycle 
from now on. How about that?

PS. Please, let's release 3.2 as it is.

Best regards,
Łukasz Langa
