Yes, I have one or two more fixes that should go into compiz 0.2 branch
and then I'll push out a 0.2.1. However, I'm not breaking the ABI in the
0.2 branch so making the these additional plugins work with the 0.2
branch is going to require more work to the plugins and it's probably
not worth it.

I'll push out a compiz-0.3.2 as well and it makes much more sense to
package this and create a compiz-extra-0.3.2 package that works with
this version.
