If a release is useful, I don't think there is any reason to wait for any
particular fixes or features beforehand. Obviously the status quo is years
better than 0.2 (literally) already. I don't see any harm in doing 0.3
tomorrow and 0.4 next week if worthwhile fixes/features go in then.
The more I think about it, the less I think we "need" a new release. We we need is to spread the word. A good deal of the information available is outdated, many of the websites are not up to date, there is very little information about the L4 port, etc. I think a lot of people get the impression that nothing is happening.
The easiest way to spread the word is to let them (the not-involved) spread the word. Nobody talks about some new lines at the website. If there is an aim to let people have a look at something that makes a good impression, some polishing would be fine. Otherwise the only thing that is needed is to declare the current CVS snapshot as Official Develpment Release 0.3.
People are waiting for a release, and things improved. Some showstoppers are now fixed. I think it's time for 0.3.
