RELEASE PLAN

• Lang 2.x - There are no plans for more releases on the 2.x line, but serious bug might lead to such happening.
• Lang 3.0 - Major update of Lang. Very unlikely to be backwards compatible. Will be JDK 1.5+ with all the goodness that embodies.
• Lang 3.x - Items for working on after a 3.0 release.
