Please do not feel offended by the following: I am grateful that ASDF is
moving so quickly.

However, for the future, I think you should avoid by all means the word
"release" and "release numbers" that are approaching the hundred-ths. There
is no way for unknowledgeable users nor busy implementors to find milestones
or real _releases_ that we should ship with our implementations.

Maybe if the next release is ASDF 2.0 one should begin thinking on a
different numbering, distinguishing individual sets of fixes pushed via git
from monthly releases that aim at broader testing -- by that I mean with
something like http://ecls.sf.net/logs.html but replacing platforms with
implementations. I would not mind help on the latter at some point, but
commercial implementations would be out of my reach.
