Ari,

Lets not take this deadline too seriously.  If it takes
till summer 2013 for 2.0 that is ok (IMHO).

I believe XYZM support would be a great feature for 2.0 and ideally
would be part of an upgrade to the more recent "simple features geometry"
model that includes various other geometry types.

I'm not sure who might want to take on this task though.  It isn't
currently a focus of mine even though I'd like to see it happen.

We aren't really a Roadmap kind of project, but I welcome discussion
of things we would like to accomplish in 2.0 which is our opportunity
for substantial changes.

Best regards,
