 Replying to [comment:117 mlennert]:
 > More generally, this whole issue shows to me what happens in an
 unorganised release process

 Not really: Martin, me and some others worked for *years* on the
 consolidation. Just others didn't care too much until now. Eg I went
 through the 4000 parameters and flags multiple times. Just join the party
 :-)

 > where we start to release betas without being sure that we are in a
 stable enough state to do so and then begin such a fundamental review such
 as this one very late into the process...

 Concerning the beta releases:
 And I am very sure that without the beta releases the widespread testing
 which actually happens (also is possible thanks to the packagers preparing
 installers for the various OS'es and distros who need a tangible package)
 hadn't been done.
