[augeas-devel] New Augeas release soon?

[Greg Swift]

gonna spitball an idea here... should lenses be packaged separately? would
then be easier to cut a release based on added lenses rather than wait for
'stable' updates to the main code.  Of course, bearing in mind that
sometime there would be versioned dependency between the two.
