Time, but that applies to any release. I am planning to volunteer as release manager for 1.8.0 by the end of the year - I had hoped to get to it earlier than that but real life got into the way. FWIW I wouldn't object a 1.7.2 release but completely lack the time to support it. >From my POV the only things missing for a 1.8.0 release are proper documentation of target-group and better documentation on the include (and its difference WRT import) task. No biggies. I do have some concerns because of the exec unit tests failures.
