I think enough people are using PostGIS 2.0.0 that its about time to put out
an official alpha 1 and also call feature freeze.

By feature freeze, I mean anything that is not alright in our trac will have
to wait or anything that will require anyone already running the latest
PostGIS 2.0.0 development to do a full dump reload will also have to wait.
The only exception is if we find a critical issue that requires us to make
changes that require a dump reload.


+1 feature freeze
+1 SRID=0 be unknown (hey most of our code is already coded that way and
more people are whining about how we haven't made an official decision than
what decision we make.  I suspect many e.g GDAL have already made provisions
for this change, and many other tools don't even work with unknown SRIDs)
+1 tag the first official alpha


Thanks,
Regina
