My opinion is 2010-03 should be the last release on the old source tree.
Releases after this should be on the new oe-core layer system. I don't
think we should scrap the release as its going to take some time to kick
oe-core into shape and finish the poky merge. Then there is work on
meta-openembedded and meta-distro to do on top of that.
