Unfortunately I can't give you an ETA for that, or even say it will happen. We
are currently focused on getting the next 0.10.0 release, and working on the next
RHEL 6.2 releases.

Why not try the 0.9.0 release? it is what will become 0.10.0 and could certainly
use some more users. It should be pretty stable (Famous Last Words).
