There are lots of ideas out there for EUPHORIA, but also many bugs. Squash the bugs first.
I don't think that this works... the problem is, it looks like it is more fun to add new features to the language than it is to fix the bugs in the older stuff.
We put a feature freeze on 4.1.0 for exactly this reason, only to see the release of 4.1.0 held up indefinitely.
I think we should adopt the linux-next idea ( http://sourceforge.net/p/rapideuphoria/mailman/rapideuphoria-develop/thread/20110130234809.GA29676%40jbrown.linuxbuddhist.net/#msg26983630 ) - create a branch for the stable 4.1.0 release and then open up the openeu-next branch for rapid development (and rapid breakage).
That said, I also like the committee idea ( http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/128867.wc ) . I think maybe we should appoint a committee to be responsible for releasing 4.1.0-RC1 and maybe even 4.1.0-final by a set date (say X-mas 2015).
