Thanks, Michael. It looks like there's going to be a 3.3, rather than nothing until 4.0. The beginnings of the package manager will be included in this. We'll have to take a look to see whether it's worth the effort to incorporate this, or whether perhaps we should simply wait for 4.0. 4.0 will include a total revamping of the directory layout of the ACS (by package, rather than functionality) so our semi-automated approach of using diff and patch isn't going to help much.
4.0 will be a big effort, we may be better off trying to solidify 3.2.2 as much as possible and do what we can to set aside a fairly large chunk of time to port 4.0 over.
Then again, 3.3 may be a simple upgrade. We'll just have to see.
