[wp-hackers] 2.2 release

[Matt Mullenweg]

Let's create a 2.2 branch and start removing the current tagging 
implementation. I'll announce on my blog that 2.2 will be delayed.

Based on how long it takes to extract and test a tag-free 2.2 we'll aim 
for either the 30th or May 7th best case, depending on how many people 
help out with the process. Ryan will also look at bringing back widgets 
as an easy, tested, and already-popular feature that will sex up the 
release.

I think trunk should start experimenting with the new taxonomy proposal 
on the list, which has the potential to do some really neat things, but 
I think it's also going to introduce a lot of complexity and need 
testing beyond the window for 2.2. Pushing it to 2.3 will allow it more 
breathing room and for us not to rush a pretty critical building block 
of WP going forward.
