What about 0.9.4? Why jumping directly from 0.9.3 to 0.9.6? 0.9.4 has 7
tested versions and is pretty stable according to most people.

LVM & RAID was asked years ago. I don't think it's wise to delay it
again or to change a roadmap few days before a major release. Unet, who
is part of the ISO team, was supposed to work on it.

The least I can say here is that sourcemage seems unable to release a
stable ISO. 2 years ago, I planned to install sourcemage on all my
computers whenever there would be a stable ISO. 2 years later ... it
looks rather funny :-)
