v1.1 plans have changed a bit. I'll release v1.1.alpha1 soon and hope to have a stable v1.1 in a month or two. The rest of the features that didn't make it into v1.1 will go to v1.2. I'll write more about this when v1.1 alpha is released.
I also did a bit of benchmarking. v1.1's performance improvements are looking pretty great, it seems to be twice as fast as v1.0.
v1.0: Maildir, dovecot-1.0 hg + inotify dotlock wait patch, mmap_disable=yes v1.1: Maildir, dovecot hg, mmap_disable=no cydir: Cydir, dovecot hg, mmap_disable=no
