100% agree with christopher.
Note also that we speak of 2.0.1, not of 2.2 !

I remind :
2.0.x => improvments
2.2 => new features
LC not being a new feature imho.

What's not nice with Libre software is that you may sometimes have to 
wait for a feature.
What's nice with Libre software is that if you don't want to wait you 
can do it yourself or fund it (if you want to fund this feature, feel 
free to ask. I'm sure I won't be the only volunteer...)

PS : some ppl in France says that "Libre software" is often used in 
english countries to avoid the "free" mistake (like free speach, not 
free beer). Is it true ?
