For instance someone (Andzrej?) mentionned ARM in system mode is half

Perhaps doing at least one release candidate to get feedback (and focus on
fixing reported bugs) would be appropriate.
A release doesn't have to be perfect to be useful. I think what matters
most is whether something is likely to be fixed in the reasonably near
future. We're going to have some regressions compared to 0.9.1. There are
a number of platforms that are no longer supported (ia64 and s390, for
instance) but we could wait another year and I doubt these features would
appear.
I agree we should not care now about targets that are not here anymore.
But things that are important for the community should be taken with
care (and arm linux user mode is certainly a very important target).
