I agree that its good to step back and discuss about the future
directions (especially with the compiz++ branch available now).

I guess that depends on how "progress" is definied. I personally think
that the compiz project made a lot of progress since the merge in key
areas that matter to the user like window managment, desktop
integration, plugins or configuration. Sure, its maintainance, but its
still very important.
